Keep up your fluid intake so you don't become dehydrated. If you feel like eating, just have small amounts of something fairly plain such as toast.
Paracetomol is good if you have a fever. If you have the squits get some Imodium from the chemist. See your GP if the symptoms last longer than 48 hours or become more severe.
All you can do is have plenty of fluids and rest and just ride it out.
Get better soon :thumbup:
I'm just recovering from the winter vomiting bug- aka Norovirus. It completely wiped me out for days, not bad going considering nothing waylays me!
You have my empathy, and the only thing I can add to Sassy's sound advice is when you think you're better....take it easy a little longer wink Don't push it too far too soon.
Thanks. I havent been sick today so I think i'm on the mend, but you're right I am feeling wiped out !

Once you start feeling better - stay resting. Give it at least 24 hours, 48 if you've been bad for a week or more. A lot of people at work had something like this. Felt better, came back into work and one day at work wiped them out for another 3 days.
If you've got the squits or been throwing up you may need rehydrating. A litre of water, a teaspoon of sugar and a pinch (JUST a pinch) of salt. It's better than plain water if you've been bad for a few days.
Hope you feel better soon. :therethere:
If you have a bad tum, my kids swear by eating the hottest curry they can makes them feel better more quickly...
Blimey, I didnt realise this was going round cos my sister had a D+V bug, gave it to her friend then my mam.........which is why I didnt get through to see her Mother's Day.

AND before touching food - if there is a delay between the two. That antibac hand gel is useful but not perfect. Nothing to beat soap and water.
I wash my hands about 50 times a day...im always cleaning or washing up !!!
Seem to be better today thank god. still lacking energy tho. Rest of the family all had it now so fingers crossed we can all get better ! xxxx
Theres an upside! Despite the fact I've been eating normally for a few days now.....I got on the scales this morning & have lost 4lb! :smug:
