Never ending bug :(

[JimRoyle]

Toddler was sick last weekend.

Me and DH became ill on Friday. I was sick a few times across the day on Friday, DH had the runs.

I wasn’t sick again for a few days but felt cripplingly sick and weak, couldn’t eat. DH had constant runs, really terrible.

Last night I had a major turn for the worse, vomiting and diarrhoea all night. I can’t eat or drink anything without needing the toilet now. I’ve had to call in sick tomorrow.

I’ve lost half a stone in 4 days. I’m dehydrated and I can barely move.

Do I just need to keep going? Or is it a 111 job? I don’t have energy to be on hold for ages unless it’ll be worthwhile.

I'm sorry you feel so rough.

I think the appropriate response is if you need to ask this question then you should at least speak to 111.

111 don't usually leave you on hold for long - they ring back but this can take a long time. You might be called back in the middle of the night or in the morning so keep your phone with you.

Hope you feel better soon.
