Is this more detox or leftover virus?

I've been on a high raw diet for a little over a month now. It seemed like I was mostly past the detox issues, but then last week I had a horrible stomach virus, with a full 24 hours of extreme vomiting (7 pounds of weight lost in 1 day). The following day, I could only keep down a few saltines. The day after, I returned to mostly raw except for a slice of whole grain bread first thing in the morning. Yesterday and today, I'm experiencing a lot of nausea. I feel like I'm verging on vomiting pretty constantly and I'm not sure what to do next. I've been eating fruit and veggies, although veggies are not appealing and seem to increase the nausea.

What gives and what should I do next?

sixxmum,

This is happening to me the last few days. I am assuming it's a latent infection from years ago being given the ol' heave-ho by my ever more efficient immune system. If you don't have a pre-existing condition implicating the liver, gall bladder, or upper intestine, I'd assume it's something temporary. I say eat what ever you can tolerate, abstain from eating if you can, and drink lots of water and rest often. I hope you feel better soon.
