Not sure hun...the only rules I know are for tweaking quick acting & checking for ketones... I have heard that sipping flattened diet coke or lemonade can help an unsettled tum, but obviously beware the possibility of upsetting the other end if you drink too much with sweeteners in. Tepid water is good too, without the laxative issue... Hope you feel much better soon! Xx

Lol im sorry but just read your reply and made me think when i had a upset tummy just before going swimming when i was about 10, i was in my mates mums car and said i felt ill....she gave me a can of coca cola and said it would help......so i drank it and guess what???? yes....i was sick all over her nice clean seats!!!

 

[novorapidboi26]

the rules I use consider ketone levels and then give you a dose of insulin to take, so really just for controlling ketones, keeping them down........

so not applicable to you personally as your not on insulin........

get well soon.....😉

Disclaimer I don't know the accuarcy of this but

When my OH was having problems I was told he should sip flat full sugar coke. He is not diabetic. I think the bubbles can exasperate things - but apparently the flat coke contains the right balance of sugars and salts so it prevents dehydration. The pharmacy said that it can be used when hydration sachets are unavailable.

As I said I don't know if this is true or if I have misremembered but you could try the local pharmacy and see if they can help.
