Have I got a stomach virus?!

Question: Have I got a stomach virus?

This afternoon I started feeling a tad strange. I had that feeling you get when you stand up too quickly and you can't see properly, like a sort of flashing. I thought nothing of it, and went with my aunt to the shops. In the car, I had a bit of a headache and felt dizzy, so I drank some water, and felt a bit better. But then I started feeling queasy, and just before we got home she had to stop the car so I could throw up. I feel a lot better now, but I'm wondering what happened? I haven't eaten anything strange...

Answers:

Symptoms like yours can be due to a gastroenteritis ("stomach virus") or even a mild food-bourne illness. Rest, take sips of clear liquids and see if things improve. If so, no worries.

Symptoms that persist and/or worsen, such as persistent vomiting, diarrhea, high fever, or inability to tolerate even small amounts of fluid can signal more serious situations that require medical evaluation.

There is a wonderful across the counter product called "Hawaban Harde" for such stomach upsets. If you can find it in any Indian store or such do buy one bottle of those herbal pills.

Show the doctor if symptoms persist.
