What Causes Diarrhea, Yellow Vomiting And Nausea?
Hello. I woke up this morning at 6:30AM and was feeling very sick and I had diarrhea. I went until 10:00AM with the feeling of vomiting until I actually vomited and the color was pink. I had ate a couple of Takis (not even half the bag) the night before. I still felt the need to vomit and at around 10:30AM i started to throw up and the color changed from pink to orange and yellow. I decided to take a shower that lasted around 15 minutes but it made me feel naseous so I got out and I could not handle the feeling and I threw up into the toilet bowl. There was mostly liquid and tiny chunks of pink and orange and then I couldn t throw anything up anymore and I was just gagging without anything coming out. Is this food poisoning?

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of diarrhea, yellow vomiting and nausea which seems to be due to acute gastroenteritis and electrolyte imbalance in body. It seems to be due to food intolerance leading to food poisoning. I would suggest you not to panic at all. You should start treatment with combination of fluoroquinolones and ornidazole. You should take proper rest. Visit gastroenterologist once and get it examined and start treatment after prescription. Your symptoms will resolve in 3-5 days. You should get intravenous fluid administration as well. Avoid hot, sharp and spicy food. You should take banana on daily basis and light food. Drink plenty of fluids to rehydrate body fluids.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
