A member asked:
What could i do about my daughter not wanting to eat a real meal for the past 4 days and she is now starting with diarrhea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gastroenteritis: Sounds like she may have a touch of "stomach flu". This is usually caused by a virus. The first few days you usually lose your appetite because the intestines really slow down and don't want to work. Sometimes at that point you get vomiting, sometimes just won't eat. Then the gut tries to flush things out, and the diarrhea starts. The key is to get fluids in and not worry so much about food!
