My First ” Stomach” Ache And I Cant Have Ginger Ale

[M_Johnson 43]

I have my first real belly ache and I would in the past pre surgery love ginger ale to calm it, now I don't know what to do..... :-(

Have you ever tried Peppermint Tea? Or steeping ginger root and drinking that?

Or have ginger tea

I am not big into teas and coffees but I will be trying the ginger teas.

Use this suggestion only in moderation: You can take a ginger ale and shake the bottle and get it all flat. (shake, release the pressure, then repeat a few times) ONLY if that's the option of last resort...

Thank you Benjamin and Mr Worm for the advice. I bought lemon ginger and peppermint! Belly is calming some. I know there is a stomach flu going around here and I do not want it because I am afraid I will end up in the hospital dehydrated. Ugh. I wish sick people would call out SICK when they are instead of coming to work and giving it to everyone else, then calling out sick to hit the beach! Now I am just venting....sorry!
