Hi, title says it all. I’m scared that I’ll throw up if I indulge in this craving. I was even considering just chewing on chunks of ice. I don’t know if I should let my body be though, and wait to indulge in this tomorrow. I was throwing up all night last night, and I was throwing up bile today. Not sure what to do. Body aches all over, so I’ve just been sleeping on and off all day. Would also appreciate if someone had any tips to get over this nasty flu. Thanks guys!

Craving ice cold water while having a flu
Keep up your fluid intake,also check with your dr ask for a dr to ring you so you don't have to go our.xxxxxx
You could just suck an ice cube? If you are throwing up you need to get some fluids in you... check you don't have a temperature as well.
Update: just willed myself to drink a few gulps of ice cold water. Have my garbage can posted by my bedside. Hopefully things go well and I feel better tomorrow. Also took a gravol. Thanks for the replies. xx
It's really important to keep drinking sips of water - or suck and ice cube - when you are being sick. If you are sick for any length of time the rehydration sachets, although disgusting, are the easiest way to replace the minerals and glucose. If you have someone who can make up your own rehydration mixture that would be just as good - I use barley water diluted with water from the fridge with a pinch of salt.
