Gastroenteritis: Could be due to a tummy bug giving you the above mentioned symptoms Make sure that you drink heaps of fluid (not just water) to keep yourself hydrated and to replace what you are losing If symptoms get worse or continue till next week you might need to see your doctor for review and further assessment as needed Hope you get well soon.
