Should I Be Worried About High Fever With Diarrhea?
Recently I haven t been feeling well, then the past weekend I ended up getting some bad cramps on my right side , I tried to sleep it off and ended up waking up with severe watery diarrhea then I started power puking for 6 hours , then I ended up with a high fever . It s been four days and the vomiting has stopped . But the fever keeps coming back and forth and my stool is like a clay like colour almost like whitish and yellow is that normal ?

Hi.Thanks for writing on HCM. Fever, vomiting and loose stools are suggestive of gastroenteritis.I were to start on antibiotics Tab.Norfloxacin 400mg twice daily for 5 days and tab.Paracetamol 500 mg thrice daily for 5 days.Both have to be take after food. Have plenty of oral fluids.Hope this keeps you in good health.Get well soon.
