Will I ever feel better?

So I was hit with some foot poisoning on Saturday night. Felt horrible all day Sunday and just a little better on Monday. Tuesday and Wedensday were even better but my stomach still feels sour and I seem to be having some indigestion/heart burn. I've never had food poisoning so just curious if this is normal and does it really take this long to feel better?

I wanted to do some P90X Plyo tonight but wondering if just resting up is best. I went to yoga sculpt last night and didn't feel great.

Any suggestions as to what to eat to get my stomach back in working order!

It does take a while to get over. Eat easily digestable foods...brown rice is a favorite of mine when I don't feel well. Drink lots of water, flavor it with some lemon or lime if it doesn't sound appealing. I would do light workouts. depending on the food it can take up to 5 days to completely leave our digetive system. So anything you can do to eat clean and move it out, the better.
Hope you feel better soon!

Sometimes it can take up to a week before your body feels well again and you have passed all of it out of your system. Just drink plenty of fluids to flush it out and rest is probably the best thing for you to do.

If you are looking for something to help ease your stomach. Ginger is great for that. Ginger ale or adding some ginger to your tea. Ginger aids in digestion and helps ease nausea.

You will def. get better with time..at first you'll see some foods with aversion but slowly you will start liking them again (specially the food that made you sick) Good luck!

Mint is also really good for digestion. Try drinking some mint tea. I think we use Celestial Seasonings... no sweetener.

I've had food poisoning from dairy and I felt better in 2-3 days. My husband got it from meat and it took him a good week to feel better. Depends on the food and your digestive system.

Good luck!

Thanks guys! I thought I got it from chicken but I was just talking to a lady in the office who said her 4 kids all had the flu last week and had the same symptoms I did so I could be wrong and maybe it's the flu.

I guess I just want to get better soon!
