Not to tip you over into not fasting if you really wanted to, but,
"Concerning fasting and obligatory prayer by the sick.
Answer: In truth, I say that obligatory prayer and fasting occupy an exalted station in the sight of God. It is, however, in a state of health that their virtue can be realized. In time of ill-health it is not permissible to observe these obligations...Blessed be such men and women as pay heed, and observe His precepts."
-Kitab-i-Aqdas, p. 134, Question 93
I hope you feel better! It's not fun to feel sick.
