oh holy mother of god! what did I eat to deserve this. The pain was so bad it woke me up to a niagara falls look a like contest. I am going to call in sick in about 3 hours or so, and might have to cancel my dentist appointment later on today as well.

do you guys have any stomach flu remedy that could help me out? so far I am just drinking some tea with honey in it....and I don't think its working because my stomach is still speaking to me in latin. something about "Liberate Te Ex Inferis..."
 
Drink water. Eventually you'll have emptied out your stomach but your body will still be trying to get rid of the bacteria. Better to be throwing up some water than just stomach bile/acid. Plus you'll get some amount of hydration from it and that's important.

Once you stop throwing up, add in small amounts of gatorade and non-fizzy ginger ale. A couple hours after that some yogurt.

edit: Oh and my doc also told me to take Zantac 150mg when I had a case of food poisoning a few weeks ago.
 
warm 7-Up always works for me...

BTW I am starting to have mild symptoms of the same thing that woke me up about 4 a.m.

I can only hope it is just an unset stomach 🙂

I feel like I have a fever today...I woke up in a pool of sweat. Don't feel too good either...sigh
 
drink some warm coke and a few slices of bread. make sure you have a full roll of toilet paper when the big bang comes.
 
I went to the doctor today, he said I got chemical diarrhea. which is basically eating a bunch of stuff that didn't agree with my stomach. felt like I was going to die today, I was contemplating if I should go into the emergency room.
 
I said a few hours after you've stopped throwing up. Yogurt has lots of beneficial bacteria in it to replace the stuff you've been throwing up.
Intradasting 😵 Usually when I get the stomach flu, the last thing I think of to eat is yogurt...I especially hate watching food commercials with the stomach flu. Makes me feel so much worse!

You're a moron and an idiot. Every single day of the week.

why so hostile, boy? where is your counter argument to what i stated? Immodium is a blessing for me. stops the runs dead in its tracks. i don't expect any professional responses from you. you have already proven what you are and are not capable of.

One was already provided, I felt it was my duty to point out what a moron and an idiot you are. :biggrin:

You ate something your body doesn't like. Your body is trying to get rid of it.

Why the HELL would you prevent the fastest/most efficient way the body has of getting rid of the shit?
