Is there such a thing as a 24-hour stomach bug?

[Archer]

I had to leave work early yesterday cause I... well to not gross everyone out... had the symptoms of a stomach bug. I went home and rested and such and just got up, about 24-hours after the symptoms started and I feel fine, other than being very thirsty and hungry. The couple other times I've gotten a stomach bug it's lasted at least 3 days.

So have any of you guys have a stomach bug for only 1 day? Maybe it was mild food poisoning?

Usually, I have it for 3 or 4 days, but I wouldn't doubt it's possible to only last one day... What did you eat?

Yeah, I've had the 24-hour one several times throughout my life. It lasts for about a day and then you are usually better. It has a differant than the regular stomach flu, which lasts longer.

I've had it, it really sucks. But for how long it lasts depends on the person's health and what caused it.

Definitely, it's over as quick as it began.

I've had a 24-hour stomach bug a few times. Probably more 24-hour bugs then 2+ day ones. Pretty nice to just get it over with in a short period of time. Not really sure the cause, possibly could be food poisoning.

I know I just dealt with a weak but lasting stomach bug for nearly 4 days.

Does it feel better or worse than the usual ~3day stomach bug? Mine always lasted longer than a day ...

Usually it lasts for 2-3 days.
As for 24 hours....I am not so sure.
The only thing I know is appendicitis.
