FLU - Help with an advice

Don't think it would be a bad idea to get admitted to the hospital for a few days. They can keep the fluids running in you and also supplement with other nutrients. It might help you get over things faster. wishing you feeling better soon.

Hi Grandmaof1,
How are you doing? Have you been able to keep anything down since you posted?
How about some chicken broth? You need the salts and the hydration...Add 2-3tbls of rice and see how you do...apple juice could help too and ginger ale...keep us posted.

I didn't stay in the hospital. They wanted me to contact my GI doctor on Monday. But I am still drinking and resting all day long. I don't work. I am a stay at home mom. Today I am a little better and have decided to eat some turkey and dressing. It is already put together and not real spicy. I think it is Hormel. I am going to add salt. The only water I drink is Smart Water with the electrolytes in it. I think it might be getting better but my goodness explaining the hospital what a jpouch is, is amazing. The doctor wasn't for sure and then said oh yah I know what that it. I wish I could have came home the needle still in my arm. I have all the fluids and etc I need when I came home from my take down I had a pic line in. The insurance covered it all, so I am hanging on to it. To bad I wasn't a nurse!!!!

I do want to say, I am grateful for everyone on here. It is so nice to know there are others that understand completely. It is so helpful!!!
