Drink much water only at this time. No visit recomemneded!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

The most important thing now is to drink much water to avoid any possible dehydration. Even if you caught a virus, the body would be able to address this without the need for antibiotics. If anything else comes up, kindly let me know so that I can review and provide more directions as necessary.

I wish you well. Always available to address any concerns that you may have.
