Sorry I didn’t get to read your topic before it was closed. I will reiterate what I’ve posted many times here before -I’m not saying I’m a Doctor or not, but I do know medicine. I’ll ignore the nasty people who try at every opportunity to put me down. I think their posts speak for themselves. I like to answer people’s questions about their health for Chessed and as opposed to some comments – it’s sometimes possible to do this online without always examining the pts. They even have a service that Doctors practice medicine online for fees.

As far as your complaints, it sounds like a virus (Eg. cold) or the Flu (also a virus), but I can’t be sure.

The dizziness can be part of the virus or lack of taking in fluids. When one is sick -it’s very important to get fluids in. Pedialyte is best, but flat ginger ale or Gatorade or tea is ok.

If you can’t hold anything down -suck on a popsicle. Pedialyte also makes pops to freeze. I hope this helps. Feel free to ask me any questions, but don’t be surprised if the topic gets closed because people can’t control their comments.
