Rescheduling an interview last minute due to illness?

I have an interview at my top choice school on Friday. But I've been feeling kind of iffy today, with nausea that was really bad this morning, went away in the afternoon, and now seems to be making a return. I'm also running a fever of over 100 degrees. I didn't think it was a big deal, but just now my suite mate told me she's had a stomach bug for the last 3 days. Great.

So I don't know if I'm being paranoid or what, but I feel like I am inevitably going to get the same stomach bug, and probably sooner rather than later given the fever and nausea. I absolutely cannot function when I'm nauseated and vomiting, so there is no way I could make it through an interview.

Are most schools receptive to last minute cancellations due to illness? Would asking for a reschedule less than 24 hours before the interview, or even the morning of, look really bad? And if they did reschedule me, would it likely be for a really late interview in like December?

Seriously can't believe this is happening right now, I'm so mad. I'm praying that I'm just being a hypochondriac and I'm not really sick...or at the very least, that the sickness can wait until Saturday to really hit me.
