DS was sick Sunday evening - and all through the night through Monday late morning. He perked up a bit, but then was sick again Monday evening. At this point he'd not eaten anything for 24hrs and only had minimal water, so the sick was properly yellow stomach acid.
He slept through last night and thought he was on the mend, but has slept pretty much all day. Awake for 5-30min and then falls back to sleep on the sofa. Again, no eating and minimal water. He was sick again this afternoon and had 3 bigs lots of diarrhea.
We called 111 yesterday who advised we take him to childrens a&e - which we did, but it was when he'd perked up a bit so all they said was "he's fine, it's just a bad stomach bug". We then called again when he had the yellow/green sick in the evening, but there was such a backlog that we didn't get a call back till this morning. Again, as he'd not been sick again at this point they said "fine, just keep an eye on him"
I'm concerned that he's not eaten anything for 2 days now. And very minimal amounts of water. I don't want to waste NHS resources, but at what point do I insist he gets seen? I'm worried he needs a drip to actually get some nutrients and water into him.
