Does anyone have a suggestion that is GENTLE to my stomach? I've already tried the milk of magnesia, alka selzer and anti-acid tablets (yuuuck).

You have had some very good suggestions, though I think you should dilute the room temperature lemonade before drinking it as too much sugar can again upset yout tummy. Chamomile tea is an excellent idea as it is natural and soothing. I used to give it to my babies when they had colic or stomach upsets. I hope you feel better soon, sweetie.

When my kids have gotten the flu, the doctor told us to put a little salt in a little 7-up. They said it would settle their stomache and they would stop throwing up. It worked. It would be worth a shot.

Very plain, dry toast is usually what I try after being sick. I think the most important thing is to try to keep yourself hydrated. Some flat, warm 7 Up is often a good bet and not too shocking for an upset stomach. ehow.com offers these great tips: "STEP 1: Remove yourself from the cause of your upset stomach if you can identify it. Nausea from motion sickness or foul fumes often goes away quickly on its own. STEP 2: Drink ginger ale or chamomile or peppermint tea if you've overeaten or have the flu. They should all soothe your stomach. STEP 3: Drinking cola works well for some people, too. STEP 4: Take antacids for heartburn. Alka-Seltzer, Maalox, Mylanta, Rolaids and Tums can all be purchased over the counter. They make you feel better by neutralizing the acid in your stomach. "
