If you drink it, take only small sips and see if they agree with your stomach. Too much at once could induce vomiting if your stomach is still not settled. I hope you feel better soon!
When one has a fever of 102, and has the runs, and is also vomiting at the same time into the bath tub, that is bad. To make things worse is to have an extremely bad case of gas. Wouldn't that be fun????
Ginger ale or Sprite (7up, too) would be better. Take it easy when you start eating, too. Start with soda crackers or dry toast. (NO butter) Then jello. Slowly progress with easy to digest, bland foods until all is well again.
No, stop drinking any softdrink as they are made with Aspartame. I stopped drinking softdrinks years ago because the Aspartame is a known neurotoxin...
Stop now while you are ahead and save your brain cells....really....
If you are going to drink soda, I'd go with warm ginger ale, it is really good for the stomach. My mom used to give it to me as a child and it was comforting.
Hope you are back to normal now. Personally, I would have had the Dr. Pepper and drank it slowly. It will help keep you hydrated and might settle the stomach. HH
