I had it over Christmas and DH had me sip pedialyte because I couldn't eat anything. The second day I ate an egg and on Christmas I was finally able to eat a little bit. I just drank as much water as I could without feeling sick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-825576 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 19:17:29 +0000 Dandelion 825576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, the vomiting stopped, but now my abs feel like I've been punched hard in the stomach. I really hope that it'll be over tomorrow, cause I'd really love some real food. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-825212 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 13:21:00 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 825212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>not fun at all! If it is food poisoning, the best thing to do is wait it out. I wouldn't try to eat or drink anything until you have stopped getting sick for at least an hour. Once you can do that, I would sip on ginger beer/ale (make sure it has real ginger in it!) and then progress with the BRAT diet after you keep that down. </p> <p>Hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-825172 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 12:38:01 +0000 LovelyPlum 825172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ew. I am so sorry. DH has had it before, and it sent them to the ER. Have you tried a banana? Those are easy on the stomach. Also, when he had it, it made his potassium really low. Bananas help with that, too.</p> <p>Feel better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-825170 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 12:37:48 +0000 swedishfish 825170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Try a BRAT diet. I had a stomach bug last Monday and the BRAT diet helped until my stomach could handle regular food.</p> <p>And feel better!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-825168 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 12:37:35 +0000 honeybear 825168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have any ginger tea? I used to drink ginger ale for an upset stomach, but the sugar content often made it hard to get down. Tea doesn't have sugar in it, so it's a little easier to get down (although I am not a great fan of the taste of many ginger teas--they can be really strong!). Feel better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-825160 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 12:32:21 +0000 BeachMama 825160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh - It's the worst. Keep trying to drink clear fluids, especially water. Take small bites of bland food - toast (no butter), crackers, etc. Hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-825013 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 10:14:13 +0000 smocks 825013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I unfortunately had it last weekend :( I threw up 8 times in 24 hours, and lost 7 lbs. Honestly? Nothing really made it better until it was all out of my system. I drank water or Gatorade, and threw it up shortly after. I'd just rest as much as possible, that was the only thing that mildly helped. I hope you feel better! I totally commiserate :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-824985 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 09:57:57 +0000 Dandelion 824985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom is bringing me some ginger ale. I feel bad, because DH is helping my inlaws move and I really wanted to be helpful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-824969 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 09:47:45 +0000 Happygal 824969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so sorry! I had food poisoning once from a picnic food, and my friend got it, too. It felt like stabbing pains all throughout my abdomen, and I had diarrhea. Just try to stay hydrated through little sips of something like Gatorade. My friend went to the hospital for good drugs and fluids, which I should have done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-824966 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 09:46:18 +0000 Anagram 824966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had food poisoning once when I was only about 13. Literally one of the worst experiences of my life (And I also had dysentery when I was 15!). </p> <p>I ended up throwing up 18 times in about 24 hours. I threw up ice chips, sprite, everything. I couldn't even sit up in the bed without getting dizzy and throwing up again..</p> <p>Luckily, in about 48 hours, it had all gotten out of my system and I was fine again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/food-poisoning#post-824926 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 09:21:33 +0000 Dandelion 824926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ever have it? </p> <p>I'm suffering from the aftermath of a bad egg roll. I'm sure it's the egg roll, because DH and my cousin ate the same stuff as I did yesterday, but I'm the only one who ate the egg roll. </p> <p>Now, my stomach isn't allowing any food since last night. Tried with a McGriddle this morning, but it came back up.</p> <p>Any ideas for comfort? I feel like there's a rock in my abdomen, and it hurts. I'm not going to try to eat anything else today. </p>
