I think i either have food poisoning or stomach flu, but i have been unable to keep anything down for over 12 hours.When should i be concerned about getting dehydrated? I just feel so miserable and my husbands a little worried.I hope i just feel better tomorrow,never felt so sick in my life.

Do you have diarrhea too? If you are losing it from both ends, then it may be more of a problem, but just take sips of water and see if this stays down. If you do have food poisoning however, once you have got rid of the offending item from your system, your stomach should start to feel better anyway.

The best homeopathic remedy take for food poisoning is Arsenicum Album 30c. Put one tab under your tongue and let it dissolve. Wait ten mins and take another and then wait another ten mins and take another and then stop. You can then take them hourly until you feel better.

Maybe you could get your husband to get you some from a healthfood store?

Hope you feel better soon.
