Sorry if this is not the best place to post this.
I fell sick with something really nasty last week. The culture results aren't back yet, but the doc thinks it was probably salmonella or shigella. I got dehydrated and Saturday I went to the ER. They gave me fluids and potassium and, unfortunately, antibiotics.
I feel like I am no longer sick but I am wiped out. I have no energy and little appetite for food or drink. I am newly pregnant, so maybe some of this could be pregnancy related, but I don't think it is. I read that protein can help restore appetite. I ate 2 eggs yesterday and 2 eggs today. Maybe I need more?
Anybody have some suggestions for food or recipes that are good pick-me-ups after illness?
