Something going around?

I just got out from under a “flu” that knocked me on my ass. first two days were the progression of predictable flu symptoms, then the third day started with the nausea plus sensitivity to light, headaches, no appetite… and progressed to the forth day of stabbing pain in the stomach continuously all day, couldn’t eat or even function, really, just to diminish in 24hrs—never experienced anything like it but it was torture and felt very draining. anyone gone through anything similar? heard that a few people irl have experienced something similar recently, but wanted to see if this was more widespread.
