Denny Crane Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 To say I've had a hellish night would be an understatement. Anyone got any known medical cures or old wives tales to knock this thing out? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gasman Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 To say I've had a hellish night would be an understatement. Anyone got any known medical cures or old wives tales to knock this thing out? Thanks in advance. Lots of oatmeal (porridge, alpen, etc) then let nature take it's course and you'll be sorted in a matter of hours. I think the oatmeal acts as "roughage" and while not actually doing anything about the "bug" it help with one of the less pleasent symptoms. ... ...oh yeah, and keep the Andrex in the fridge.

Tazio Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Avoid dairy product until it settles down. And drink lots of water, your body will be dehydrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-Dizzle Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Drink energy drinks, eat meat and lie on your stomach. It will be out your system before you know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Sexington Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Suffering from one right now. Spewed my body inside out all Thursday night and I still feel like there's a gremlin taking a machete to my intestines. The chemist recommended Motilium tablets. I've not long popped one and I pray that it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Bob Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Try a bottle of Coke. But first of all, knock the fizz out of it. Its got the sugars and other bits that you're losing. Tastes a wee bit better than diaoralite powders. Hope you feel better soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cams Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I got a fecker of a stomach bug in Egypt last year, and iam still not 100%. Passed out in the bog in the middle of the night after suffering for 3 days with skits. Pharmacy gave me tablets on the first but when the doctor saw them he said i had been done. Had to get 3 injections as blood pressure/ glucose etc had gone through the floor Could not keep any fluids in the body what so ever. Is a strange sensation when you drink cold water and it comes shooting out your erse 2minutes later just as cold as it went in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flatmate very kindly got me some cola and pepto-bismal which seems to be working - sweating like mad though which I suppose may be good. As for the tea-towel, you don't know the half of it...... oh jeeeeez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
