Food when sick

I have no idea at all what's going on:
Yesterday, I woke up with stomach cramps, which lasted all day. When I tried to eat something, I promptly brought it up. I've eaten a few times today and have either vomited or my stomach cramps have just worse. I am hungry; but really don't want to (yet again) attempt to eat my dinner - because I have a feeling I'm going to throw up.
Is there any food I should try eating that won't make me sick again?

This.
Also sips of lemonade help.
This is just from my experience so no idea if it will work for you or if it is advisable....
I had an operation and pretty much vomited every half an hour for 24 hours after it. When I got home I attempted to eat again, but couldn't keep anything down. Eventually I discovered fruit shoot to drink (even water by itself seemed to set me off), and mini wheetabix (with just enough water to make them soggy).
Hope you feel better soon *hug* Is it worth giving NHS Direct a call? Sometimes you get put through to someone helpful
Flat coke is good, full sugar, or lucozade. Even full sugar squash with a little salt in it
Why not ask a doctor what a good alternative would be?
That's correct - I am wheat intolerant; but we do have wheat free bread.
I'm starting to feel better now, thanks.
This. It's liquid and salt that you need to replace.
