Is it ok to eat seafood, specifically shrimp & crab meat, when one has a fever? on keflex for almost 48hrs. ate seafood &then shortly after vomited. i'm not allergic to seafood. not sure if the med is working or shouldn't eat seafood during a fever?

Basics: Your digestive system is often slowed during any illness. As such simplicity in your feeding choices can help-Avoiding fatty foods or challenging spices is prudent. I see no reason to exclude seafood for those who want to eat it.

Agree with Dr. F: You may eat sea food as tolerated. Make sure to stay hydrated with enough water, fruit juice, electrolyte drink or Gatorade etc.
