You COULD have a viral type infection or a digestive illness, depending on how long that has been going on. Get some help by calling your dr. for an appt. OR at the very least call a nurse helpline. There should be one in the phonebook or on the back of a medical coverage card if you have insurance. I hope you feel better soon. It is not something fun to deal with.
Since you can eat yogurt it seems that it could be digestive related, as the yogurt often has enzymes to help regulate or settle the digestion. IF eating that makes you feel improved or relaxed in that area soon after then I would suspect that.
Rice is a good food choice during such I feel. If plain it has no real odor and it can be easily digested. It is filling and I feel it helps to absorb some stomach juices that affect digesting.
I would try applesauce or jello. Bananas are good and soft to eat, if you are able to try one and see if that helps you any too.
Are you in the family way? In the medical world we instruct people to stay hydrated by drinking pediolite, gater-aid, jello water, chicken broth, sprite. Ensure is another possibility if you can get it down. You can go with out food for a lot longer than you can go with out fluids. If you don't keep your fluid levels up with things that balance out your electrolytes potasiums and ions you could possibly face a form of shock called hypovolemic shock, so try very hard to keep those fluids up. If all else fails go to the minor med clinic where they can stabalize you with an IV and put fluids back in you interveniously. You'll be fine.
What is wrong with you?? Why can't you eat??If it's just an upset stomach try eating a few crackers before anything else. Eat 4 or 5 crackers, than wait about 45 minutes than try to eat a little bit of the kind of food you want to eat.Hope it works for ya.
