Suggest Treatment For Stomach Flu , Nausea And Diarrhea

I m 28 and female. For years, when I get norovirus or stomach flu, I ll have standard symptoms (stomach cramps, diarrhea, nausea, throwing up, headache, etc etc). I know it s food poisoning or stomach flu because my whole family will typically get it at the same time. BUT on top of regular symptoms, I also get really bad hot flashes (especially and particularly right before or after throwing up) and tingling all over my body. I ve just recently realized that most people don t get these hot flashes which I thought were normal. What s different in my case? Can the hot flash/tingling be normal?
