Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
My mom came home early from work today because she had a very bad headache and felt nauseous, she said something was going around at work and all her work mates had it (and all their families had it as well), Her symptoms sound similar to food poisoning, but that doesn't "go around" as she said, not unless everyone is eating the same thing, which is very unlikely.
I looked around and figured it could be the "norovirus" (as much as I hate that term, and the entire idea of it) it sounds very similar, but they said for that to "not prepare food 3 days after illness" and my mother prepared food last night, It was just bagged frozen food that she dumped onto the pan, but she probably straightened it out with her hands, I'm worried about my mom, but I'm also worried about the spread of this "virus"
I was recently sick and hospitalized and it was a really scary experience that I don't think I can go through again, One of my biggest triggers is stomach pain/issues and having a stomach bug would actually make my anxiety skyrocket and probably make anything I was feeling a billion times worse.
How likely is it that it's the norovirus? How likely is it that I will get it? Can I avoid it? Will my mother get better? Is it likely that she transmitted germs to the pan with the food? Because I had some of those potatos and I'm worried about getting sick.
She said it came on suddenly, she was feeling right and then all of a sudden she felt ill.

I used EFT and that really helped me a lot. http://eft.mercola.com/
For now, if you wash your hands a lot, you should be okay. If she can use a different bathroom, that would help. With stomach issues, most of the time it's only transmitted when people have symptoms so you're likely okay.
Even when people are around someone who's sick, they usually don't get sick unless they have a weak immune system and are in direct contact with bodily fluids of the sick person.
