HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is likely that you have gastroenteritis . This is usually viral though it can be caused by bacteria as well.

The most important part of gastroenteritis is fluid management, that means it is important to avoid dehydration.

Your will not be able to tolerate alot of fluids at one time. You should consider using very small amounts at one time. Start with 1 to 2 tbs every few minutes for an hour. If you tolerate this amount then you can increase it.

You also need to rest and can consider using an antiemetic to reduce the vomiting.

I hope this helps
