Take care.
Magnesium will help soothe the gut.
You may want to boost your immune system. 1000 mg Vit C (if you are not allergic to it) at least every 4-6 hours.
Also B complex to help the nervous system
AND LOTS OF LIQUIDS. Preferably light like 7UP. No citric juices but pear juice or eat plums.
Maintain normal activity unless you are washed out. Keep hydrated!!!!

Hello!

You got the Norwalk Virus probably.... every 3 years, it comes and causes some trouble.....

You need to keep hydrated... Lot`s of water or better, gatorade ! At least one ounce every hour !
Here`s a recipe for homemade gatorade:

1 cup of orange juice
1 cup of boiled water
1 pinch of salt.


When no more nausea for 6 hours, start eating with something light... crackers, rice, toast. Stay away from dairy products, fat or spicy foods for few days !

Get well soon

My wife got it now too...started in the evening, by 1am she flipped her stomach inside out. This is not fun

Yup, looks exactly like the Norwalk virus. Sigh... :( at least I know what I've been puking :mrgreen:

I know it's a little late - but hope your feeling better soon as well as your family.

Barbara 03-17-2007 04:08 PM

Hope you and your family are starting to feel better today. I don't think Norwalk has hit my area too badly yet, so thanks for the early warning. Going to start hand washing like a mad woman!
