Nasty Intestinal Flu


Piccolo

Recommended Posts

Piccolo Apprentice

Hi Guys,

I don't log in often but thought you'd all know what to do. I've had an intestinal flu bug and anything I eat just goes through me. I just started to eat again, but what is the best way to plug me up. I just want to get back to normal and get back to work. I am feeling so much better now and just need to gain the lost weight back.

Susan

Glad to see you're doing a bit better :)

I got hit a month or so ago, and it was nasty.

Hi Susan:). Glad you're feeling better, stomach flu is awful. I'm sure you are eating bland, soothing things like bananas, baked potatoes, tea, etc.

If it were me (and everyone may not agree) I would try Immodium. Just to stop the diarrhea and let your system settle back down. A day or two should do it.

Take care:)

I'm of the personal opinion that stomach flu is why God created Imodium. ;)

Do what you gotta do, baby! Rice, potatoes, peanut butter, tea. Soft, soothing,

doesn't-hurt-on-the-way-out food. :P

Soups, crackers, baked potatoes.

I have a major craving for French fries when sick.

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
