Still feeling sick days after norovirus

Hello

I had 24hrs of hell with the norovirus last Wednesday. I threw up every hour, sometimes more. I stopped having diahorrea and sickness on Thursday, but I'm still feeling horrendously sick all day long. I'm not throwing up, it's just constant nausea and burping.

Can anyone shed some light on this? Thank you.

It can take time for your stomach to settle down. Wait a week to see if symptoms clear totally.  If they don't, see your doctor.

I would not be surprised, after being this sick, your bloods are all out of balance partly because you have been sick and partly because you have not been able to eat.

Start with really gentle food rather than full on normal food, think what would you feed a baby, eggs and some white bread toasted if you like it that way. cooked fruit, creamed rice, stay away from meat meals maybe for as much as a week or more, and especially stay away from anything spiced or with cinnamon or anything like onions, your poor tummy needs a big break, then slowly start re-introducing normal meals, in small doses.

 

Thank you very much for your comments. You've helped to set my mind at rest. It was really starting to play on my mind.xx
