Quick medical question 8(

Is it vomiting you starve for but carry on eating with the shits. Only I could eat a scabby donkey but am a bit scared my organs will come out of my arse

Yes - keep eating and buy some Imodium (however you spell it )

There isn't a general rule anymore my love. Do what feels right. If you have the runs but still feel hungry, have an immodium a while before you eat & then just have something that's relatively easy on the tum. Feel better soon chickadee xx

Just eat bland stuff, I think apples are good for a poorly tummy? Or is it bananas? Someone will know.
 
Either that or bung a cork up there xx

ohh sorry i think the shits is starving. that is what hv told me when ds had them.
 
I had to ignore her though as he was 9 months old and soo hungry; I just gave him bland stuff
 
leave the scabby donkey though-might make things worse

i think bland stuff is ok and bananas and eggs are good for 'binding' and making you less splatty

i would stick with something bland, toast/crackers that sort of thing,
 
i would not go with the immodium!

try not to take anythng to stop it though as having the runs is your bodies way of getting rid of something bad. If you stop it the poison stays, so shite away pet and stay away from dairy x

What Smithy and Camo said - there is a school of thought that says something going through your digestive system is better than nothing because it can stop the special surface on your intestine that helps you absorb food from shrinking.
 
Shitting is the body's way of getting rid of the bug, taking immodium will slow that process.

Eat the bananas if it's all going down but banana puke is The stench is viler then anything I've smelt before.

pimms my doc recommends an "easy day" with d&v. from the point you don't vomit anymore you drink. then you start with starches (sp??) plain rice or potatoes. if that stays down move on to veggies but steer clear of dairy for a while.
personally I've been eating plain rice for quite a while now - not that it's made any difference. so maybe my doc is talking out of her arse
