Brief Answer:
Take pepto-Bismol!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Drink much fluids to replaces losses and avoid getting dehydrated. Pepto-bismol will help with keeping down liquids and food. If you have a fever, tylenol would be helpful. Bed rest is also recommended, if possible.

I wish you well and let me know how this goes.
