So yesterday I finally got a batch of bad sushi (lower level food court of St. Lawrence Market- boo on them!). My stomach was twisting up shortly thereafter. Woke up at 1:30am cuz I thought I was gonna puke, but didn't. Stayed up all night, went back to sleep in morning, only to wake up an hour later and puking for real. What's so annoying is this feeling like my stomach is being wrung out like a wet dishcloth. I've already taken some Pepto, but it aint doing much.
Help me out here!!! |

| Take a stool sample and nails those bastards ! Send it in to Health Canada and we'll take care of it! Drink lots of water to prevent dehydration, I'm afraid that's about all one can do! |

| Oh man that's horrible...I hope you feel better soon - I hate when something like that happends. Like he said...try drink lots of water, another strange but true thing is that when you are feeling nauseous drinking something like coke/diet coke really helps to calm the stomach down...just a thought. (A medic one taught me that) :( Hope you feel good soon! |

Oi! I'm serious with this.
Go to shoppers, buy some, mix it with hot water - drink it down.
You'll be golden. |

That sucks Nat... I hate food poisoning. And people get it more than they think. There's no such thing as a 24 hour flu, you know. If you're stomach-sick for only one day, it's probably food poisoning. The problem is, it can take up to 8 hours to affect you, so it's hard to trace.
I've heard that lot's of water is good, to keep you hydrated and to dilute something-or-other... can't remember what.
I don't know about the coke thing... ginger-ale always helped me, but I'd be careful of anything heavy with a lot of sugar and caffeine.
Hope you're feeling better!

Just take a gravol every 3 hours to knock you out and let you sleep it through.
Stick with clear liquids too... ginger ale and 7-up.
