Is this gastroenteritis?

Hi, I was wondering if this sounds like gastro or something else. My 1 year old was ill for 4 days, mainly a temp and lots of vomiting. He is now on the mend. Then a few nights ago, I developed a fever, stomach cramps and diarrhoea, all of which lasted 24 hours. But since then, I can't eat anything without it going through me. My stomach cramps are very mild, if that and I no longer have a fever but it's day 3/4 and I have the constant runs. No nausea/vomiting. Does this sound like gastro? Or ibs? How long is this meant to go on?

Unfortunately we have had something similar rip through our house. Lasted bloody 5 weeks of the summer holidays. The only way we stopped it was to fast for 24 hours and then a diet of just plain toast for a couple of days. We were advised by Gp to avoid anything dairy. Good luck, there’s some rubbish virus’s out there at the moment!
