Specializes in Pediatrics

Viral gastro illness: The most likely cause of all your symptoms is a viral gastroenteritis ("stomach bug"). For all three of you, focusing on hydration is mandatory. For the two small children, they should be evaluated to assess their hydration status ASAP. Clear liquids with electrolytes (pedialyte, gatorade etc) at room temperature in small sips frequently. Goal for the kids should be about 1 oz/hr. NO milk or diary
