I'm feeling worse as I knew I would, but I did eat a good lunch and am getting hydrated. That has helped with the nausea. I made it through my lunch break without going to the store for vodka (thought about it obsessively). So I'm feeling a little more confident I'll get through this.
Pedialyte or kids' electrolyte solution helps a ton man. Local grocery stores should sell some kind of equivalent. Drink a litre of those a day or more and they really help keep you hydrated.
