Hi Mary-Jane, welcome to the forum 🙂 Are you on any medication that might be causing the upset stomach? I find that a cup of lemon and ginger tea helps settle my stomach when I feel nauseous.

I wonder if this could be contributing to the problem. I find I get stomach ache and wind if I sit too long.

‘Digestion: Sitting down after you've eaten causes your abdominal contents to compress, slowing down digestion. Sluggish digestion, in turn, can lead to cramping, bloating, heartburn, and constipation, as well as dysbiosis in your gastrointestinal tract, a condition caused by microbial imbalances in your body.’

You are probably right, perhaps I should walk after lunch before the afternoon session, thank you.

That's a good idea, thanks
