Suggest Remedy For Severe Diarrhea And Vomiting
Question: Hello
I am a 26 year-old male. 12 hours ago, I had an incidence of loose motions and vomiting. This was accompanied by pain and discomfort in the stomach. After that, at intervals of approx 1 hour, I had three more incidences of intense vomit. Bowel movement was more frequent, almost every half hour. Bowel discharge was light coloured water. The last three vomits consisted of a brown liquid. I have never experinced such a fluidic bowel movement or such a vomit discharge. I had weakness and fever. Now, since last 7 hours, I haven't had any vomit, and one incidence of watery bowel movement. But my stomach still feels uneasy, and I have slight fever and weakness. I don't feel like eating a anything. But my condition feels better than how it felt 10 hours ago.
What happened to me? And what should I do now?
Please help.

Brief Answer:
Did you eat anything your are not familiar with or out of the house?
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I have reviewed your info ration fully and am sincerely sorry to hear of these rather severe symptoms that you experienced. These symptoms are suggestive of food poisoning or intolerance. This happens when you eat food that you are not very much used to or food that was poorly handled during preparation and storage. These symptoms usually resolve spontaneously within 24hours
With you feeling better, there is no reason to panic further. Simply drink much fluids and monitor yourself. All will soon return to normal and there is really no need to seek for further medical attention unless something else comes up.
I hope this helps. I Wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
