A member asked:

My 3 year old son threw up yellow yesterday morning, and ever since then he has been complaining of on and off headaches and fevers what could it be?

Viral syndrome: Acute onset of vomiting without associated cough or cold symtoms. Intermitttent headaches and fever treated "without a response" or "feeling comfortable" would be suggestive of a more serious illness. Persistent vomiting inspite of a trial of nothing by mouth stomach rest is also grounds for checking sooner than later. Small sips given over time with intro.To starches may be tolertated. Monitor!

Monitor: Watch for signs of dehydration such as lower than usual urine output. Provide clear liquids in small amounts but frequently. Please follow up with your PCP.
