Gastric Flu

[Lucyd]

We have had an outbreak of gastric flu in the family that has passed from one to the other in the past week. My son who is 3 seemed to be better and was eating dry biscuits milk and toast ok for a couple of days but yesterday I gave him pasta(without the sauce) and he was sick in the night again. We are all drinking water but can anybody advise me about diet.. Also I am disinfecting the house like mad as this illness is driving us mad, can we become re-infected, does anyone have any tips on this... Thanks Luced

you are doing every thing right ,drinking eating plain foods,you just have to ride it out,have you been to the docs', drink salt and mineral drinks too diatribe(think thats right) it's not easy when every one comes down with the same thing chin up it will pass(no pun intended)soon good luck hope you lot get better soon.

milk is not a good thing when you've been sick, water would be better.
