Answers:

Make sure she is sipping water or sucking ice constantly. Dehydration is dangerous so it is important that she keeps her fluids up. Next you need to organise a doctor. Do you know if your doctor makes house calls? If not I think you should call the ambulance and get her to accident and emergency. She may very well need intravenous fluids and an injection to stop her vomiting. This is a lot of responsibility for you and it is much better to over-react than underestimate the potential seriousness of the situation. Don't worry about what she says. If you can't get a friend or neighbour to come round promptly and take her to A & E phone an ambulance.



Give her some warm chicken broth. If you have some chicken noodle soup, that broth works really well. Saltine crackers and weak tea may also help. Give her alot of liquids! She probably hasn't been eating and that causes bile, then dry heaves. If she don't get better. Call 911. They r here 2 help.
