Can i have a plain ham and cheese sandwich? i just got over the stomach flu but my stomach still feels sensitive?

Maybe. Many times your appetite will return before the gut can easily process some foods. Rice/breads/pasta/simple soups are all easier to digest after such illnesses. You can try but if you cramp afterward (within hours) you may want to slow down your re-feeding plan. Fatty foods & complex meats require more digestive work so they need to be added with caution.

Yes ,but don't put any mustard or mayonnaise or ketchup or anything else on sandwich that could upset stomach.
