recovering from Sickness and diarrhea

[Frikadellen]

I went down Wednesday morning (1 am) with a violent and very nasty S&D bug. It was 10 am Wednesday morning the last time I was sick. However it is now Saturday and I still struggle to eat anything. I caught a wiff of a bowl of sweets taking dh to the chiropractor and it turned inside me. All I appear to be able to cope with is dry stuff like crackers Rich Tea biscuits I tried boiled egg last night but this gave me stomach cramps.. I have managed on toast banana rice (BRAT diet) since Wednesday but I am actually very hungry now yet today eating rich tea biscuits my stomach is again painful in cramps

I have wondered about chicken broth (got plenty in the freezer) but is there anything else I can eat? Please don't suggest ginger ale as I just cant abide the taste..

I have checked up online and many places say 96 hours of the BRAT diet I am 96 hours past last S&D but still don't seem to be able to eat much. (or anything)

I am managing fluid intake by a mix of water and sprite (not together)

Sounds like a really nasty bug.

The main thing really - especially in this weather - keep drinking as much water as you can to avoid dehydration.

Would you fancy a fruit smoothie?

Sounds like you've had a bout of either gastroenteritis or norovirus. It does take a few days even after the last bout of being sick to recover.

Chicken broth or fruit smoothie may well make you sick again after eating. I would just stick to water, sprite and plain food like rich tea biscuits. Your stomach can't cope with anything much else at present.

Hope you feel better soon.

Wanted to leave a message of thank you took me 5 days but back eating again was one of the nastiest bugs I have ever had.
