unusual stomach virus

This past week my family and I shared a stomach virus and I unfortunately recieved the worst of it. What made it unusual was the pain. Just before vomiting I would get this tremendous pain in my esophagus and then I would need to voMit. The pain would sometimes feel like heartburn and then at other times it would feel like an elephant was on my chest. Once I vomitted the pain would go away until it built up for the next prayer with the toilet. My husband and children only had the pleasure of having to get sick once or twice. I got sick 12 times. This began last Wed. and I am still nauseated and I still have stomach cramps. Not to mention a pounding headache as if I had been out drinkning all night. I did go to the hospital and get IV fluids Thur because I called my doctor to see if he could give me any relief and they sent me to the ER. My doctor's office said they had never heard of anyhing like that before. Has anyone else?
