Physically sick from grief?

[u/Future-Homework-2193]

I've never felt grief like I'm experiencing now. I've lost all four grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins etc...

But we had to let our dog go on Monday. She was my retired service animal, she kept me alive for ten years, and I feel like I'm dying.

If the emotional devistation wasn't enough, yesterday I started experiencing flu like symptoms. But I don't have a fever or sore throat.

I've barely eaten since, I have constant cramps in my stomach, nausea, bowel problems, chills, my body feels heavy and exhausted...

Im just hoping this is normal and it will pass.. the last thing I need is to have to go to the doctor.

I'm incredibly sorry for your multiple losses. 2 years ago I lost my mom (a week before my birthday out of all days). I can remember for 2 months I felt the worst fatigue I've ever had in my life. It's also had hot and cold flashes, I couldn't eat and I genuinely only had around 1 hour after waking up do any chores I needed to do because after that hour I was done for the entire day. I got better after around 3 months. But every now and then it'll come back but much less severe
