Can I speed up recovery from a stomach bug?!
Question: Can I speed up recovery from a stomach bug!?
I work at a childcare center!. I used to work there full time but recently cut my hours back A LOT because I'm trying really hard to finish college!. I only go to the daycare about 1 - 2 times a week now!.
When working there full time hours, I was constantly getting sick! Stomach bugs, colds, everything! Since I stopped working there so much I have noticed that I am not getting sick neary as often!
This is the first time i've been sick since cutting back my hours 3 months ago!. Its a stomach bug and its had me up half the night!.!.!.I feel like I should just get a pillow and blanket and camp out on my bathroom floor!!
I know that they say to get healthy you have to get a lot of rest and drink a lot of fluids and all that stuff, but would that really work with a stomach bug!?!? Tomorrow (today, its 3am) is Sunday and next week i've got a REALLY busy week!. Do you think that sleeping all day today could possibly speed up this bug!?
Or does a stomach bug just have to run its course!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
It has to run its course!.!.!.but you can reduce the effects with dramamine (take 1/2 for less drowsiness) and sip at sprite/7Up!. It will keep your electrolytes up, the gentle fizzy feels good, and it will keep you hydrated!.

You'll feel better faster if you can prevent dehydration!.
The fastest way to absorb water into your body is by drinking a specially formulated electrolyte/glucose drink (eg Pedialyte), much faster than plain water or juice!. If you are vomiting, then just take small sips every 5 mins!. And yes, rest will help!.
