Prayers to everyone reading this and possibly suffering from stomach flu.
Pray for me 🙏🙏
@@chrisxd101 praying for you too
That’s me. What was supposed to be a day at of relaxation was ruined by my school; how? Well we had pizza to celebrate the end of the school year yesterday. Ofc they aren’t fresh and it gave me a stomach bug. I hate my life so bad
@@rhysme423 i’m sorry :’( hope you feel better now
@@maisogyny eh I have had it for nearly a month now and I still feel like shit. I have to eat in tiny cubes. Who tf eats a goddamn chicken patty in little cubes?! Well that’s me.
I hate when they say "drink plenty of water" it's like how tf can I when everytime I put anything in my stomach I throw it up
Yeah I know right!!! I'm on day 3 and I still feel sick. I hate throwing up! It's funny because they say drink this or eat that! How can I when I just throw it back up! I'm pretty tough but I cant handle this crap! What worked for you? TIA
Just Take a sip little bit every hour.
@@sandfordfields6578 wow I’m lucky I think I have stomach flu but it’s just diarrhea
Water is the worst thing to drink its too heavy,you dilute apple juice or gingerale with water
Just getting over this, drink sips of ginger ale or Gatorade, you can’t stop the vomiting but still have to try to keep hydrated.
i haven’t gotten sick in 6 years and this is hitting me HARD! i am absolutely miserable, can’t stop throwing up and diarrhea
Hey how long did it last?
Same
I haven't been on the vomit comet but the diarrhea train just keeps on rolling along.
@@MicheleBohmke yeah but i used to
I’m on day 5 now 😢
The toilet has became my home
lmaaaoo
Having the stomach flu! My body hurts like EVERYWHERE .. hot/cold flashes and every sip of tea/ORS/water results in immediate vommiting. It is kinda exhausting 😞
Same
Be making me hella dehydrated and I want to drink more but Its just gonna come out again
here because i’m in so much pain and i hate this illness so much :,)
Ah bless ya hope it didn't take long for you to re over.
going through this rn I cannot, im dying.
does anyone else have really awful back pain when suffering wit this, ive been trying to sleep but can’t because of how sore it is
Yup
yes!!! it hurts so bad
Back and neck pain. Whole body feels weak.
Yes
Absolutely!!! 😢 keep on keeping on we got this. 😊
y’all i have this and i’m completely EXHAUSTED. it’s been 4 days i feel like i’m DECAYINGGGGG
I'm on day 6 rn.
How long did it take you to get better
@@IndoorCitrusTreeFun 4 days of hell and by day 5 i felt almost 80% better
Day 3 for me 😩
@@cammrennn did u take any medicine?
Hope you all feel better. Just spent the entire night vomiting and shitting my brains out. Feeling a little better.
Hare Krishna! May God Bless US❤
I feel like dying. Vomiting, Diarrhea, Muscle Ache ahhhh
Whatever I try to eat, I feel like vomit🥺
@@AK-zw3yz feel better. It will pass ♥️
I felt like I was dying, instantly felt better after eating a lemon. EAT LEMONS PPL!!
i literally have to go to the bathroom every minute 🥲
BRO SAME AND MY PARENTS ARE WORRIED
How long did it last 😩
@@Jg8jewetwwhcastelw3 maybe like a few hours i forgot😭
Maybe 2 weeks
literally the worst thing ever. yesterday i was going from both ends, constantly. i’d wake up with a rapid heart rate to throw up and gag into a bag until every last drop came out. now it’s mainly diarrhea and an inability to eat anything… the body aches/soreness is just an extra added “f you”
I swear that’s me right now
@@user-uj5rc3ds9z don’t worry my friend it will go away. let your body throw up and poop everything out. then slowly eat simple foods. drink gatorade with ice it helps so much. then bring some milk to a boil, pour into your favorite mug, and break a piece of toast into it… eat that
@@user-uj5rc3ds9zthis is me too. I’m on day 5 with no end in sight. Then I start to freak out that I’m going to get severely dehydrated and I have panic attacks. Please end!
this was the worst sickness i have ever experienced.
Right, I just want my mommy lol and I'm in my 30s
Yeah the problem is if I do any of these I will just throw up 5min after
You have it right now?
@@jw957 I am and it feels rlly bad
Fax lol but im better now still can’t eat much but ima eat a lot tmrw if I get to 100%
I have it, it sucks
Guys trust me on this if u feel sick get an ice cube and rub it on ur wrists or the back of your neck wrists work better it will start to kinda hurt ur wrists as ut numbs it but for them few minutes you’ll feel better because your mind is focused on the ice as it numbs ur body do this throughout the day and if u actually are vomiting then you just need to let it all out 👍🏼 stay safe
Weird remedies 😮
Of you can't keep down the water after drinking, try to sit upright and take one sip every 5 minutes, after a while you will be able to take 2 sips and so on.
I am just getting over this. I took over-the-counter Dramamine Motion Sickness chewable. It got rid of the dizziness, nausea and vomiting. That's half the battle. In the evenings I took Tylenol pm for pain and to help me sleep. When I wasn't wanting to drink water, I sipped on strawberry Pedialyte. I went back and forth between the two. Hope this helps someone.
Good advice, Thankyou. 4 days in and it’s so painful and the vomiting/nausea is awful. I started throwing up lots of blood so went to the hospital and they said it was gastric flu. No antibiotics though, so I hope it is indeed viral and not bacterial. I can’t keep anything down either not even water, so all the iv fluid gave been helpful. Got discharged this evening and home again, the pain is like upper stomach against my rib cage. Please end 😢
@@jessH090 hey! I hope you’re a lot better now.
@@jessH090my chest hurts so badly too
This hit me in Christmas and I feel like I’m dying
Me too bro dying
How are you now 3 days on? I’m day 4 and wanna die
@@jessH090 how r you doing
I have a stomach flu, and i dont want to drink or eat anything.. Maybe some sips of water but nothing else, i threw up 4 times last night and im not taking anymore chances.
Bro I been suffering abdominal pain for hours…
Thank you so much i threw up like 10 TIMES
SAMEEE MORE LIKE 15
I’ve been vomiting every 30 minutes and it hurts when there is nothing left but you still have the feeling to vomit
@@fcg3215 I hate when that happens. I threw up pure stomach acid once and it tasted like drinking warm OJ after brushing my teeth
@@ahuman2695 yea i japonés for 4 days in a row and it was terrible. I hope you feel better!
@@fcg3215 Thanks
Things happing to me when i had the stomach flu:vomit, headache, barely sleep, get dizzy when geting up,stomach hurting, diarrhea.
The dizziness part sucks i was filling up gas in my car the other day and nearly passed out
Ima guy who take some pain… but this has me in my bed feeling like I might pass out bc of how painful this is in my stomach.. on day 2 haven’t slept since but going on to day 3 if it seems I can’t make it through the night I’m def going to the hospital.
U straight bro?
@@cazadormaradona6375 yessir luckily Once I got to the hospital they gave me some stuff for pain and fluids for hydration the next day I felt like a charm.
@@cazadormaradona6375 it was very painful for ab 3 days for me before I had to go lol.
When you first get symptoms don’t drink or eat anything for around 8 hours let it run it’s course, when you haven’t been sick or diarrhoea for a while slowly get into drinking ( apple juice, cranberry juice, sports drinks) little by little, when you feel safe to try eating something small and bland
I hate! to throw up and will try very hard not to. The last 3 times I've had the stomach bug God has been gracious-I haven't thrown up and these have helped: peptobismal tablets, charcoal capsules, tums, peppermint oil mixed with lotion massaged all over belly, 100% Concord grape juice and peppermints. I'll even do all of them!! And I just heard about kuzu root powder. About to purchase it for my little girls. That and charcoal gummies! 🙂
I've had times where I've had a stomach bug where I just have the runs and no vomiting, but still have the fever and chills and stomach pains and nausea.
My little brother gave me the stomach flu and tomorrow is my first musical performance which I've worked for 3 months for... as long as I dont throw up tonight I can still go
That's bad spreading it, it's the most easyest bug to pass on, I bet everyone caught it.
@@allanallen1835 I managed to ditll do the musical, and everyone got it after it was over. They said they were happy to miss school
Stomach flu got me walking like a old man
Really I swear the water triggers the stomach pain, all you want is water but it makes it worse
I cried so mush😭 it was like I have died
Currently 1:03 AM just finished cleaning up my throw up everywhere feeling SO good 😭
I rarely ever get sick, but of course... when the worst possible thing to get sick with breaks out I get it. Feeling like a living zombie pukezilla baybeeee 🤟
The pain is unbearable
rather than drinking a lot of water, i drank pedialyte. i sipped it slowly and got plenty of rest. the water just made me puke ! pedialyte was my cure i swear.
Yes solutions or sachets that contains electrolytes helps a lot because during the course of the virus the body loses electrolytes not just water alone since the body loses salt and sugar as well due to watery stool and vomiting.I know now cause I'm going through it at this moment and sure thing is it's not pleasant
I never get sick and I have the stomach bug and it hurts so bad. And I can’t sleep because of it
The only thing that brought me relief was the doctors antibiotics as well as that saline bag! At home I couldn’t keep anything down including water
Antibiotics? Antibiotic’s are for bacterial infections, right? So you didn’t have a flu virus? You had a bacteria?
Ya same I couldn’t keep nothing down medicine pepto water
Thought I was getting better and tried eating some normal food today. Paying the price for it now with bloating and vomiting. Unable to sleep with the discomfort too. Hope this ends soon
ive been having this for 6 days now ,i thought after 3 days i was okay but i got too confident and ate bacon with eggs and i threw up and my healing process started all over so now i’m so paranoid ,nothing hurts anymore i’m not throwing up but now i’m afraid that i’m feeling to excited too soon and i’ll mess my progress up and throw up if i eat the wrong thing even a sip of milk is scaring me , i’m pretty sure i’m cured but i’m not risking it
Same
How long did it take b/4 you resumed a normal diet.
Ummmmm... y'all missed one, where's the run to mom so she can fix it?????
Thank you. I always forget about the brat diet and ginger in drinks (7 Up or Gingerale).
I have the stomach flu and BRO IF I DRINK WATER, THE NEXT MINUTE, I'LL FEEL LIKE PUKING. But thank goodness, I haven't puked yet
Did you puke yet?
Taking a probiotic capsule has helped with the diarrhea.
I threw up 4 times last night and im js so scared to eat/drink anything
I've been puking since 3 am, and now I have a fever, headache, body chills/ache and I'm still nauseous but not really puking anymore
Edit: I was sick with this for about 3 whole days, on the last day I had horrible neck pain and my head was spinning. What helped for me at least was eating foods such as soups and chicken, and drinking Pedialyte.
omg i could never do 3 days of this please no
@@TackyHarmonica honestly, it was a nightmare, and one of the worst pains I've gone through in my life. It felt like having covid all over again but with twice the symptoms. (I thought it was covid at first, but i tested negative)
@@uarmyalo lol nvm it was actually an appendicitis, but honestly that sounds worse than what i went through
i was sick with this for about whole 3 days.... Horrible stomach pain .... what's do you ?....
Is drinking ginger ale good for the stomach bug? Because I have that and I don't know what I can drink aside from water.
I'm experiencing this right now :(
Only dry heaving
Pro tip: when you drink water only drink a little at a time and if you start to feel even more nauseous then stop immediately and when you start to feel better then you can drink more amounts of water
Does anyone have a hard time swallowing????
sometimes when I throw up, I see some blood on it
Like. Thumbs up!
Mine lasted 8 days😖
Thanks for letting us know, I’m on day 5 now wondering when will it stop 😢
Oh man, I’m only on day two 💀
I have the stomach flu and don’t feel like like myself at all like I’m trying to get rid of this fast and idk what to do
I keep spraying outta my ass, threw up after downing too much tea and feel amazing. My dumbass thought i needed some food and ate some wings the next morning. Walking on egg shells all day cause i feel them bad boys waiting to attack me if i move too fast
😭
😂😂😂
Lmao currently dealing with this😭
Thank you for this, I really needed that visual LMFAO
I just crave so much food I can't eat right now or much of anything ill go straight to the toilet :(
All These tips include eating or drinking. I can’t do any of that. It just comes right back up.
EXACTLY I’m actually dying for an answer that doesn’t include emptying my stomach all over again
Fine I will start to eat bananas even though I don't like them
Applesauce also helps x
I can't eat bananas they give me a stomach ache :(
Sounds gross but does anyone else notice bright yellow pus coming out the other end? Hope it’s not just me.
Currently dying
How long did it take you to recover? For me, 2 days
Living on the bathroom floor currently
The pain in the higher part of the legs is the worst !! Doctor said to drink electrolites
Same i throw up if i eat or drink anything i have the stomach flu today its the worst to ever experience it and for me today is 1/19/23 8:09
its my first time having stomach flu and its sooo bad i feel so gross :(
I have a stomach flu
I feel dying. Vomiting, Diarrhea, Muscle Ache ahhhh
I have stomach flu and threw up alot
Do you loose soo much weight with this flu? Like 5 kg in 3 days?
I lost about 2lbs in 3 days but most of that was dihoreha. I only had 2 bits of toast in 3 days and had Im thinking about pizzas now without getting repulsed but still couldn't eat one yet.
I’ve lost 7lbs in the past 5 days. I haven’t been able to each much only ate chicken soup on the 4th day. Praying this goes away soon
This sux so bad bro
How bro I ate toast yesterday and sat there in the restroom all night puking=/
I CANT DO THIS, BRO I FEEL LIKE MY EVAPORATING FROM THE INSIDE
Spent a solid 45 mins lying on my bathroom floor, in and out of cold and hot flushes and periodically jumping up to put yet another shotgun blast down my toilet while at the same time dry heaving as my stomach has seen food for over 3 days. Fun times
here because im dying. drinking water makes me wanna puke
I threw up 17 times (not exaggeration) and this ain't helping
Plz I just caught the “stomach bug” is coughing up blood normal??
I dont think so
How are you feeling now?
I just have diarrhea
I'm not an adult I'm 9 years old and I have stomach bugs
Surely you shouldn’t be taking imodium ?
I had a diarrhea stomach bug recently, and I couldn’t stop going to the bathroom about every 5 minutes for three days. Eventually I took Imodium and it was a life saver
Day 1 out of many. Only a few hours in and I can’t take it anymore
home remedy is weak remedy for serious sickness like stomach flu.. just go to the doctor and get the strong med
At this point i'm still very shocked with negative result i got after suffering from Norovirus for so long. Thanks once again Dr.Osaoji on youtube for your medication
How long it last
The way she cuts that banana though
i’m hiding in the comments
i get this like once a year ☹️
I feel like dying. Vomiting, Diarrhea, Muscle Ache ahhhh.Whatever I try to eat, I feel like vomit. Is this normal?
@@AK-zw3yz uh it’s normal occasionally. not for more than 24 hours usually. but for me this only lasts around 5-6 hours
Uninformative
I drank water I just pucked
this ant hellping
Fucking annoying because no channel will show me how to make my stomach gurgle and drain. That's all I want.
Damn most of the comment section sicky wicky🤢
