What Causes Diarrhoea Along With Vomiting, Nausea And Chills?

I have had diarrhoea, occasional vomiting, nausea, occasional chills and fever like symptoms (especially when in pain) and severe stomach pain for approximately 10 weeks. I get some relief occasionally, but find I am unable to eat a lot of the time and am losing weight. Any ideas?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your son have symptoms of diarrhoea along with vomiting, nausea and chills which seems to be due to food poisoning and acute gastroenteritis. It could be due to disturbed metabolism of body leading to electrolyte imbalance or due to viral infection. I would suggest you to take acetaminophen and anti emetic medication. Avoid intake of any outside food , drink plenty of water , eat fresh fruits . Take diet rich in multivitamins and avoid any oily sharp and fast food. Visit general physician once and get it examined. You should get blood tests done to find out underlying cause of condition along with stool test , endoscopy and ultrasound and start treatment accordingly. Your symptoms will resolve in 3-5 days. You should take proper rest. You should take plenty of fluids to re-hydrate rather you shoyld take ORS.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
