If you are: Feeling delirious, feverish and can't take in oral sustenance then you would be best suited by being evaluated urgently, likely in an ER setting, as you may require short term monitoring and IV fluids. Best of luck.

You're dehydrated: A nasty virus like what you have can dehydrate you pretty quickly -so it's important to take in fluids and 'chicken soup' until you feel better. The presence of fever means your body is still fighting. Doctors can help with IV fluids/electrolytes--a fast way to restore fluid and salt losses. The advantage to an ER/urgent care trip is they can tell exactly what needs correcting (i.e. potassium).

I had a stomach virus that I caught from my daughter two weeks ago and then she had another two days ago. I puked once both times but this time at the very end of the puking session (I puked a LOT!)it was a traceof red. Is it blood? The ketchup I had?
