My 6 year old caught a stomach virus from his classmates. Had a stomach ache, headache, vomiting, and diarrhea for about 3 days but now he has a sore throat and red eyes and yellow gunk in his eye. Sorry I can't pay your prices for questions. I wish this was free because I really need to know i f I should take my son to the Dr or if it is just virus that will run its course.
