Suffering From Diarrhea, Color Gone From Face, Lips, Getting Eggy Burps. Having Rashes Due To Medical Reaction. Solution?
My sister has been doctors as she has been ill and they said if she is sick to call an emergency doctor out. However she is has been trying to be sick, all the colour has gone from her face and lips, she has diarrhoea and has been doing very eggy burps. Just recently has came up in a rash but we think that may be a reacton to the medication given. She is a lot of pain so we are a little lost what to do. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi, thank you for posting.
The first problem she need to solve is rehydration(replacing liquids that are lost by diarrhea). This procedure can be done only in emergency rooms (ER).
During this procedure she need some tests:
1) Complete blood test.
2) Faeces culture(To find diarrhea cause).
After that she need abdomen ultrasound.
The result of the test will determine the treatment.
Rehydration is emergent
