<<<<BLEURGH>>>> I have a stomach bug - any advice on how to get over it?

I have had an upset stomach on and all off all morning and was sick at lunchtime. Now I just feel like a pile of crap, nauseous but nothing coming out. I've managed a glass of water over the course of the afternoon, so far so good.
Any tips or tricks to help me get better quicker? I had forgotten how gross this is

sips of water, nothing else to eat today if you can

then use BRAT to recover

Banana Rice Apples Toast

I haven't heard BRAT before! I don't eat bananas but I could try the rest. I do feel a bit hungry but still feeling sick. Think I'll hold off a bit longer. Thanks.

bananas have a drying effect on stools (sorry if TMI) so try to force a few slices down??

But wait til tomorrow if you can, carrying on with plain water sips

Hope you feel better soon

LOL! I've explained the timetable of expulsion of my bodily fluids, obviously TMI doesn't worry me Actually feeling a BIT better but now getting a bit hot having been freezing all day. Thanks for the advice
