Following on from the 'Lurgy' thread I now have bad diarrhea. As well as feeling a bit sick.
Husband insists I should eat, as I'm weak, but what?
I fancy veg. soup but that might not be a good idea.
Also I might buy a remedy from the pharmacy.
Any suggestions?

A friend of mine, who is a nurse, recommends plain (ready salted) crisps, lemonade, and dry toast or Rich Tea biscuits.

My sympathies Fennel, I’ve had a bug this week. Just beginning to eat again. I’ve tried the inside of a jacket potato with absolutely nothing on it and a very small piece of fish for a bit of protein. Ok so far...hope you feel better soon.
