Is this a migraine or stomach bug?

Doesn't matter which really but I'm curious.

DS2 (13) had a big event yesterday. He woke up in the early morning and was violently sick. He also had diarrhoea. He was sick over a couple of hours, then went back to sleep. A little later he said he had a headache, dizziness and a temperature. He hasn't been sick since yesterday morning.

Today temperature is back to normal but still has a headache.

I know there is a lot of D&V about but wondered about the timing of it and whether it could be stress or tiredness related.

When he was much younger, he was often sick when very tired, but not normally with headaches etc.

Anxiety?

I thought that, which would explain the sickness but not the temperature which was 38.7.

He was definitely poorly!

I don't mean anxiety isn't 'definitely poorly' but I've never known it to cause a physical temperature like that. And there was a LOT of vomit.

Sounds more like a virus.
