the poo's
so i have this stomach thing, and it's ugly. i used to think people who used the term 'stomach flu' were morons, but now....
it started with the bubbly-bloated feeling, and a consistant and unrelenting nausea. i figured if i stuck to a bland diet of rice, applesauce, bananas and drank lots of chamomile, peppermint and ginger teas, it'd work itself out, but now, day 4 brings the poos. poooing and pooing. and everything i put past my lips just seems to make matters worse. oye!
advice, suggestions, experience, something...
i need to go to work.

Re: the poo's
blackberry root teas for sure. so sorry to hear about that.. there's so much of the stomach flu/pooing going on it seems. also i am hearing alot of folks get the pounding headache with it as well. in short, the flu.
also, perhaps some nervines at this point would be good. but not kava ,as gail taught us.. it is also a muscle relaxant and may relax.. everthing. so. if yer already runnin to the pot. not a good idea. especially at night
stay hydrated

Re: the poo's
Sounds like you've got an intestinal bug. maybe a parasite?? If it was a proper flu you'd have a fever and chills.
You may want to think about Black walnut, wormwood and garlic to fight the germ/parasite. those herbs would also be good for your trip. I'm sure you want to go herbal all the way but get some stuff from the Dr. and over the counter, to be on the safe side. I successfully did herbal for 4 weeks on my India trip them got hit bad the last day. On the pot for the whole night. Had to take a flight back to Delhi that day or else I would have been stuck in the hills for 3 more days till the next flight. I took the Cipro and Imodium. It got my ass to the big city where I could rest up in a proper hotel.
Maybe think about probiotics to. there are some that you donet have to keep cold.
Send POst cards if you can. (DO people still do that?)

Re: the poo's
So here's an amazing site my healer in NY uses. This woman has done a lot with cancer. I'll post it on the main resource page but she has some kick-ass (no pun intended) parasite formulas
http://sacredmedicinesanctuary.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=8
Here's another link into the site for another one
http://sacredmedicinesanctuary.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=24_43&products_id=206
the site is a bit confusing as she has 16 sites but i'll post those in Reference Links
The main site is
http://sacredmedicinesanctuary.com/
At the bottom are listed her 16 sites. But they can be reached from any of the others. If your confused there's always a link to the main one at the bottom of each page.
Here's what I used when I went to India the past 2 times.
Activated charcoal - great for when you got something or think you got something. the charcoal attracts the bacteria and carries it out of the body. don't be surprised if you poo is black
Wormwood Fromula
Rascal Formula
Both of these formulas taken before each meal
http://www.hannasherbshop.com/
click Shop, Herbal Products, Combinations
Haven't used these kits but may want to look into it after you get back as it can clean out anything that's left hanging around. Call them I'm sure they'd give you more info
Protozoa Kit
Wormwood Kit
http://www.hannasherbshop.com/
click Shop, Hanna's Products, Kits, Specialties
Both from Hannah's Herb Shop out of Boulder
