A member asked:

Had diarrhea and vomiting since 11 last night. cant keep anything down. i am experiencing cold fever and whole body aches. should i go to hospital or what should i take?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Time to call doctor: Vomiting and diarrhea go together, and many patients have both. Often, symptoms go from top to bottom, with vomiting starting first, and then the diarrhea. When vomiting starts, some people try "gastroenteritis mode" and stop eating for 1 day, and start drinking small amounts (depends on one's age and weight) of Pedialyte or similar fluid each hour for 1 day. One's primary care doctor helps.
