Still sick, though the symptoms have changed. Still drinking water. Still a prisoner to the bathroom. Anyone who wants the gory details can PM me. Most bizarre stomach/intestinal flu I've ever had or heard of. This is day #8. I increased my calories by 200-300 per day and increased my salt and gained 2-3 pounds of what I believe is water, so I'm not stressing about the weight gain. I am focusing on getting better for now.
The pharmacist said to eat a BRAT diet: Bananas, Rice, Apples and Toast. This is supposed to be best for my condition. Lots of carbs and starch. I will try, but no promises. Right now, I'm not even well enough to go to the store to buy these things to eat. Ugh. Going to rest again. Hope everyone else is doing great in the meantime.

I've done the brat diet many times. Have GERD and Barrett's. Works pretty well and if it's horrid, Carafate is something your doc can prescribe. Sounds like you've got something more then a flu. Take care.

This is bizarre. Hope you have someone to call to go to the store for you. Like you said, you have to focus on getting yourself better!

Maybe go to the doctor stomach flus usually don't last that long. Take care and get better.

If you feel weak, you can eat applesauce instead of apples. It's easier to get down with no chewing. Applesauce with no added sugar. Get well soon!

Who cares about the weight. You have to be healthy. You'll get that all back once you're healthy again. Good luck tomorrow. We want that sense of humour back here.

Ditto Northernmusician's sentiments. Sorry to hear this illness has become so prolonged. I hope you and the doctor find a good resolution soon!

I also agree with NM, starch and carbs won't do anything bad. And even if they do, you will be healthy again and will burn it all off.
