Old fashion Rx: A few decades ago we routinely advised patients to sip a little flat cola over ice chips to settle a stomach. Now they have an otc product "emetrol" that is based on the same idea. It works for some. The idea is to take small volumes frequently until the stomach stops the spasms.

Upset stomach: You may have caused yourself some alcoholic gastritis from your drinking.  Keep your food very simple -- like broth and crackers or rice, even.  Baked potato. Applesauce & bananas are easily digested and add pectin for bowel function.  If you can find it, papaya for the enzymes.

Question 8

is it okay to eat goldfish with an upset stomach?

Accepted Answer

Go ahead: Each of us, on the road to adulthood, passes many milestones of immaturity. Swallowing a live goldfish is a college prank; it's cruel to the animal and someone may call you on this. I can't promise it won't make your stomach more upset. Don't drink to excess or allow others to do so. Help people who have been drinking protect their airways. Best wishes.

Question 10

is pizza ok to eat if you previously had an upset stomach yesterday?

Accepted Answer

I'd wait another day: The problem with recovery is you often have cravings for stuff your system may not be ready for. Any fatty food, cheese, salsa, fried food, require increased digestive work & may trigger renewed sx. Steamed rice, noodles, macaroni without sauces, spaghetti, simple breads are all well tolerated during recovery from a GI disturbance.
