Last 36 hrs I have had the runs and vomited through the night last night,felt so much better after vomiting but tried some weetabix and toast this morning and I,m feeling queasy again any tips to keep my strength up and to get me back on my feet (I,ve got by cycle club night out tomorrow!
Isotonic sports drinks
Dioralate from the pharmacy if it's been that bad
Coca Cola
Nothing until you can start keeping stuff down, or in. Just sip water to keep your hydration levels up and occasionally try some dry toast to see when you can start eating again. Not much you can do but to get yourself to bed and wait for it to pass. Personally I find that once I can keep stuff in I can usually eat most things but try to keep it simple and plain for a day or so.
Dioralate and starve it out..
You won't need any strength,just rest.
Lucozade and water saw me through two weeks of this earlier this month.
Porridge with cinnamon and sugar with a bit of salt.
You just need to wait it out. If you miss the night out, so be it.
Your body has decided to flush your guts out for some reason, until it's changed its mind, you won't keep much down. As long as you stay hydrated you'll be fine.
Loads of Guinness and a red hot kebab, just for variety
Coke, but open the bottle/can and leave it to get flat and plain biscuit like a rich tea. And water.
I would give the ride tomorrow a miss you need to give yourself time to recover
I am liking the idea of porridge!!!! fart russian roulette is interesting!!!!
If you eat porridge:
Newcy broon and brussel sprouts.
Dioralate from the pharmacy if it's been that bad
plus bed rest

Electrolite sports drinks (just electrolite, not isotnic energy drinks) seem to be pretty much the same thing, without the abhorrent taste of cherry creme soda.
Coke or lucozade and plain salted crisps seem to do the trick for me when recovering from something like that.
Chocolate Milk.
Not a recommendation, just an observation.
Bananas, rice, stewed apple and Toast is an old fashioned way to get people eating again but it does seem to work quite well.
I imagine if you had wheatbix with milk, then the milk might be causing you to feel sick. Plenty of fluids is the key though. I'd avoid sugary drinks though.
What I can recommend though is going far down the channels in search or cheesy movies. A few days of gastric purge makes me really sentimental. Last time it happened there was an advert for a Nissan car that made me cry every time it came on.
Electrolytes aka sodium with a little calcium magnesium potassium selenium. Aldi do them in some stores. Nuun, High5, Powerbar, Sis are popular brands. Put table salt in your orange squash if desperate!
Lucozade and water saw me through two weeks of this earlier this month.
2 weeks. **** that. I once had it for a day or two, and that was more than enough.
Get some probiotic yogurt drinks in ya, yakult, actimel type stuff.
Makes a huge difference getting your gut flora back to normal
Dioralyte.
Any that you have left over use when out on your bike. Better than all the crap out there.

It was absolutely premium a grade shite. I was about ready to punch the walls if I had any energy left by the end of it. My laundry was absolutely revolting too.
Avoid anything fatty or spicy, other than that just try and eat as normal/what you can face. Drink lots of water and as above diarolyte
Water, lots of it, orange juice with a pinch of salt in it, toast, chicken soup when up to it.
Pretty much what I ate and drank when I got hit by Norovirus.

yes it will, but not just yet, the bacteria that break down dairy products are some the last to recover after a spell of D&V.
As above, BRAT diet is recommended once you can keep things down.
You can get most of it in the same pot from the baby food isle and it's dead easy rather than preparing food.
Gentle on you too if you later discover you've started to early
D&V
Always taught eat nothing for 24 hours, sip cold boiled water, little and often.
Get well soon
MOAR Curry!
HTHs.
Whatever bearnecessities eats.
That or pizza/burger toast (search for the thread on here). Bunged me right up.
Papaya. Seriously. Find one and eat it. Then the rehydration tablets from boots
Water and light foods like toast don't drink energy drinks.
Personally I would stay away from (cow) dairy products altogether. In that I include milk in tea and coffee and butter.
It's really hard to digest (whey protein).
I had a nasty dose of food poisoning earlier this year. First time I reintroduced dairy I was sick for another three days. Effects were almost immediate of return of the runs. Doctor told me to stay off.
Previously kids have been advised to go onto goat milk by GP for a week or two after tummy bugs.
Goat milk is betterer/ok.
