Tummy bug 1st time in 2 years



Recommended Posts

I am home early from work today because I didn't feel well. Yesterday I ate 1 sausage patty and got Ill, at lunch I ate some cheese off the chicken breast meal and got sick. I wen't home took a shower and passed out, I woke up for work this AM and at 8am had 1st break I ate 2 piece of bacon and felt ill but did not get sick. at lunch I got so sick on 1 bite of ham and chicken (no bread) and I had ordered a milkshake but had to throw it away because it made me Ill too. Today was bad so bad I came home.

I took a nap, felt better tried a glass of tea before going to pick up hubby and got sick but not just sick but sick feeling I even dry heaved :confused:

I think I've got my first virus in 2 years :P

Any advise I apparently can't eat so Ill do liquids.< /span>

awe Nana - sure hope you feel better.

Think you can handle some hot chicken broth? What about pop sickles? Anything to keep you hydrated.

Gatorade and lots of it. A great way to get liquids and feel better is to make Jello and drink it warm, it will sooth a sour stomach and keep you hydrated. ~Mandy

don't want to slip a band! I would talk to your family Dr., there are prescription medications you can take that will help prevent you from vomitting. If you let him know that it's important for you not to heave because of your lap band. I'm worried about that myself as I'm prone to tummy bugs a couple of times a year, I plan on getting a prescription to have on hand to make sure I don't end up causing myself damage.

my children's doctor recommends room temperature flat sprite. take sips over time, no gulps. if can't keep that down she then moves onto phenegran so they don't get dehydrated.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
