What might be causing my nausea and gassy feeling/bloating?
Featured Answer
most likely gastroenteritis (probably viral, but if persists then stool samples for O&P and C/S should be considered).

Nausea is just an indication of your body not ready to accept the food you just ate. Throwing up is also an indication of the body wants to throw out such food which is not suited for the body at that time. It is best to drink a lot of water and make throwing up easier. After throwing up, sip water little by little. if still feeling unrest, you may suck some fresh lemon. What ever else you do, do not take any food or drink for at least 12 to 14 hours after this, That will complete all the repairs that needs to be done and you will feel fine. I know it is a little too late to advise, but even at this stage a fasting for 12 hours will do you a lot of good. Remember do not begin a fast after eating some thingv. Fasting begins when you miss a meal.
If it was sudden you ate the wrong thing something bad or poison that you can't process. The episode of diarrhea means body is trying to purge! It could also be stomach flu or possibly diverticulitis which means you need to go to the doctor if it do not subside in a couple of days
Stop setting only drink clear liquids, mineral water or apple juice diluted or clear broth for 24 hours to see if it gets better. Go get probiotics 50 billion units until subside. After you get a little better you should go on a cleanse to try to Alkalize and increase nutrient dense food to heal the colon

Hello,
I hope by now you are feeling better. Our offices were closed for a funeral. It sounds like maybe a viral, bacteria or possibly flu. In any case, I would say to stick to a liquid diet of simple lemon water (lemon is a natural detoxifier) and some electrolyte Popsicles or ice cubes for at least 12 hours. Stay away from sugars for a few days at least, as bad bacteria love to feed and grow off that. I would like to offer this idea. There are few electrolyte solutions without sugars other then what is needed for your electrolytes, you can get at a natural health food store. Alacer electrolytes (green box) is sold at Wal-Mart (or it used to be) if not, also sold at natural health food stores.
Popsicle / Ice cubes Recipe:
One Packet of Alacer Electrolyte Solution Powder
1 liter of Fiji or Evian Water (I use these two as they have the lowest acid content of any bottled water I have tested so far. - the lower acid level is less likely to upset your stomach and any gas issues you may have at this time.)
If you want to add raw lemon juice for flavoring that would be OK. Do not add sugar. Bad bacteria like to feed off that.
Mix well. Once completely dissolved, pour into ice cube trays. Once frozen you can suck on the ice cubes or if you can only handle ice chips, place cubes in a plastic bag and crush with a hammer :-) Very cave-man style but cheap and it works! LOL.
Again this idea should NOT take the place of meeting with your PCP or other health care official for a full evaluation. Especially if you are still ill at the time you read this :-)
Feel free to call my office for further ideas, help with locating an ND in your area or other questions you may have.
Hope this was helpful :-)

Sounds viral. If things don't continue to improve in 2-3 days would see your doctor.
It sounds like you are having mild food poisoning or gastroesophageal reflux. But the mild diarrhea points more to food poisoning. You probably also have a dull kind of headache. Bland liquid diet over a 24 hour period is usually enough to tide you over the short duration of the effects of mild food poisoning. Do not take any antidiarrheal medications, to ensure that residual toxins are flushed out. Beyond this, you must go to ER for full evaluation and treatment.

You have food born ilness, it is the result of eating contaminated, spoiled or toxic food, common symptoms : nausea, bloating, diarrhea and sometimes vomiting, one in six american will contract that every year, ( thanks to the food industry), contamination by bacteria ( Ecoli, salmonella,listeria etc.) or virus (Norovirus, rotavirus or hepatitis A if you traveled to Mexico) and sometimes bacterial toxin ( botulism)
avoid carbonated beverages : they make bloating worse, drink fluid ( water, juices) have brat diet ( toasted bread, banana, apple juice, rice ) and wait 2 days if you don't get better or if at any time you develop systemic signs ( FEVER, abdominal cramps and pain, headches ..) see your primary care
God bless
