Stomach virus from hell

[DianaBanana]

:barf:

That is all.

[Artha]

Please wait until you get better to post those pictures.

[Weedmage Princess]

Ugh stomach viruses truly do suck, Diana. Hope you feel better.

Feel free to post vomit pics in the Mean Girls thread though!! <cackle>

[DianaBanana]

Thanks. Dont worry, I hate having pictures taken of me when I look like total crap. :thumbsdown:

[Wezas]

I thought I had a witty comment that includes juggling and tossing cookies, but I seem to have lost it. Carry on.

[Atlanteax]

Feel better Diana....

[DianaBanana]

The virus is still here. Damn you stomach virus! Damn you! I've had to cancel plans with 4 people over the last 4 friggin days!!! :(

:spin::spin::spin:

Prefer to vomit to have diahera and become weak because you get deshydrated like hell.

I had a virus too, our water is bad so now we drink bottle water.

Drink a lot of pure water and eat well!

[Snapp]

Hope you feel better soon Diana. Stomach bugs are the worst.

[DianaBanana]

I'm trying to eat but anytime I do it just upsets my stomach even more. I know I need to drink water but it's so hard to force yourself to when you really feel this crappy.

If you can, drink Gatorade instead of water.

Also, warm Coke or ginger ale. Regular, not diet. And warm, not cold.

Don't force yourself to eat if you can't but definitely drink as much as possible.

Sadly, the Gatorade made it worse. I'm sick of drinking water....

Excuse me while I go sit in a corner and cry now. :sniffle:

Vernors works well for me, if I'm dealing with a runny throat (those are the worst).

Again, feel better Diana! :aww:

Amoxicillin solves all of life's problems.

[GSTamral]

Amoxicillin, or Augmentin, is useless against a stomach virus.

While you have a stomach virus, the easiest way to cure it is to starve yourself for a period of 24 hours.

You can eat/drink the following things:

Water, Clear Fruit Juice (the less sugar the better), Coke Syrup (but not Coke), Lemonade.

You can eat the following things:
Jello, Icees (but no ice cream), Dry Toast if absolutely needed.

16-18 hours after there is nothing left in your stomach, the virus will be gone. Eating or drinking only allows it to thrive.

But it's cool.

I have to take amoxicillin three times a day for three weeks because of a sinus infection. :drunk:

Well I'm finally being smart and going to the doctor today. When will this stupid stomach thing go away?!? :mad:

Where can you pick that up at? A regular grocery store?

It seems rediculous that I pay $1.00+ for a coke slurpee when I could be using the Mr. Smoothie that's still in the box my girl got for Christmas.

Had mine for like 2 weeks. Man It was CRAP!

Then, out of nowhere, gone.

Stop drinking your town's water if you don't boil it 5-10 minutes, that's is a must for the rest of your life!
