Diarrhea, Vomiting, Difficulty In Taking Deep Breaths. Any Ideas?
I just got a bug or something had diarrhea and vomiting all night for hours. 12 hours later I can finally hold down food and drink again but I have yet to poop and I can't take deep breaths. When I try to take that deep breath like when yawning, it feejs like my lungs are full way before or that my stomach is too full still. Any suggestions?

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic
Probably you are suffering from gastroeneritis.
It may be food poisioning if you have taken something outside and you have fever also. In that case all the people who have taken the same food along with you will suffer.
You take electral drink repeatedly each time you go to toilet about 200 ml.
Take an antibiotic like Ciprofloxacin with Tinidazole twice daily.
YOU may take Diamox tablets 3 times daily to relieve gastric distension
If no improvement after 48-72 hours better consult a physician
if the number of motions are very frequent you need IV fluids to prevent dehydration.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
