i came down with a stomach flu this morning. started with vomiting then nausea, then diarrhea. vomit has mostly consisted of bile %26amp; amino acids. i haven%26#039;t eaten anything all day for fear of vomiting it up. i have been drinking lots of water. two times so far, i have become very hot, drenched with sweat, dizziness impairing ability to walk/move. vision blurry. is this normal with a stomach virus?
Dizziness, sweats, high temperature lasting 5-10 minutes?
sounds just like flu but if it gets worse get help...phone the doc for advice anyway!!! you will be feeling dizzy etc because you have no food in you...best to keep it that way so the bug has nothing to work on!!! take small sips of water (tiny bit of salt in it will rehydrate you) and have a tepid bath and go to bed and stay there!!!
Dizziness, sweats, high temperature lasting 5-10 minutes?
It%26#039;s possible, but If you are running a fever 101degrees or above that does not come and stay down with a fever reducer and the vomiting persists you should seek medical attention. In the interim drink plenty of fluids especially water, then try clear fluids gradually. (fluids that you can see through) i/e broth, tea etc.....
Reply:yes, it can make you have all of those symptoms....maybe this can help (we do the banana thing and it works!)
Instructions
* STEP 1: Drink a mixture of 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda stirred well and dissolved in a 1/2 glass of water to relieve the rumble of acid indigestion or heartburn. Drink the mixture quickly and repeat in two hours, if needed. Adults under 60 can safely do this up to seven times in one 24-hour period.
* STEP 2: Eat a banana. Bananas soothe the stomach and counteract the acids that cause upset stomach. They are also easily digested and can help to ease diarrhea.
* STEP 3: Drink strong ginger ale or tea, or chew on a piece of candied ginger to relieve nausea. In China, ginger has been used to treat upset stomach for 2,000 years.
* STEP 4: Drink peppermint tea. Peppermint calms the muscles of the stomach.
* STEP 5: Relax. Take a warm bath, lie down and listen to music, curl up with a good book. Let go of stress in a way that works for you.
* STEP 6: Avoid foods and drinks that may cause upset stomach or gas. Some of these are coffee, onions, cauliflower, chocolate, fried foods and baked bean
hope it helps you.

Reply:Try eating chicken soup and drink alot of fluids, that should help with the dizzyness. you don%26#039;t want to get dehydrated. maybe someone can go to the store for you for some medicine, and if you don%26#039;t feel good in a couple of days I suggest you call your doctor, Hope that you feel well soon.
