So five days ago i developed really bad diahorreah. The day after it started I began vomiting, I can't keep food or water down still. I have lost 8lbs. I no longer have diahorreah, but still nausea and vomiting and abdominal pain. I don't have a temperature but I feel really knackered, most likely from not eating. I feel full up and my tummy is distended. I'm not sure what to do about it now? I've never had a 5 day bug before, so really I'm asking has anyone had similiar recently?

I'd call your GP and ask for a telephone consultation if you're worried

Poor you, get well soon! Yeah I've had a stomach bug that bad. Hideous. Sip rehydration sachets mixed with water if someone can bring them to you, really helps.

Oh sorry, just read you can't keep anything down? You may need fluids via a drip? Dehydration is serious so I'd phone out of hours doc

Thanks for the replies. I'm going to try and get an appt for out of hours, I was in hospital with gallstones three weeks ago so I'm worried it is related to that. Seems crazy to have such a severe bug!
