What can I do about the stomach flu?!


Question: What can I do about the stomach flu?
On Wednesday, I had some diarrhea and that's it > only went to the bathroom once. 4 days later on Sunday (today), I had pretty moderate abdominal cramping and I had to go diarrhea twice today but no other symptoms have occurred (no vomiting, nausea, etc.) My guess is that I have a little bit of the intestinal flu but I'm just a little worried about tomorrow.

I have class tomorrow from 8-9:25 in the morning and I don't go back till 1 so do you think I'll escape school before I get abdominal cramping because I go home right after my classes? And what food/drink is helpful for the intestinal flu?

Thanks:)

Answers:

Flu's are from a virus. Which means they need to run their course and you mostly treat symptoms.
Drink lots of fluid to replace any fluid loss from the diarrhea.
Eat "easy to digest" foods

As for escaping school, i would just see how you feel in the morning. If you feel ok, don't eat anything before class.



you should probably go to the doctor but that sometimes happens to me before my menstral cycle .. I usually take pamprin max & it helps



Go to the doctor.
