I have had the dreaded lurgy for 2 days well 2 and a half
won't go into details

but is there a bug going around?

and what remedies do you have
I am thinking a glass of wine tonite may help!

Snap but just for a day and a bit
No milk products and flat coke make sure you have plenty of fluids

Hope you're feeling better

You're probably a bit dehydrated so although wine may be good for the soul, probably not a good idea. Something with a bit of salt in it wouldn't hurt, and plenty of fluids.

thanks Snoops

ok 2 glasses of wine
and kentucky fried chicken and chips

I did say " abit of salt"

Other than keep your fluid intake up, I don't have much advice. Oh, aside from Lucozade being a bad thing to drink whilst you have an upset stomach.

Plenty of fluids, dry toast, if you have a temperature try and keep it down aswell.

Lucozade isn't too bad, but it should be flat - Cola (not diet) is better as it contains sugar for energy and caffein to make you feel more alert.

Flat coke, flat luca, salts..............ignore em all NL, drink loads of wine, you might still feel like **** .

but at least you won't care

Lucozade doesn't replace the electrolytes lost during the results of a stomach bug. The body loses sodium, and lucozade is a high carb drink with relatively low levels of electrolytes. Flat or not, it's not a suitable way to replace the fluids and electrolytes lost.

Wolvie is just ordering a Pizza hut!
and I am about to move off the bed and relieve.......the fridge of its chilled sauvignon

well you only live once!
I am going to be sooooooooooooooooooo ill

I know this one! My sister had a doctor for a home visit for this once and she said no lucozade because it contains so much glucose and stuff that it actually takes water from your body by osmosis. So just drink plenty of other fluids. And eat things like mashed potato and old fashioned sponge puddings, high carbs.

Personally I think that you should eat what ever you fancy eating. Pizza sounds good though I'm not sure melted cheese sits very well in a queasy stomach.

Hope you are getting better now

oooxxx

yep! just had Pizza hut

and glass of wine

Glad you're feeling better NL.
