Hi everyone.
So last night I went to the ER because I was vomiting profusely, had diarrhea and horrible stomach pain. The doctor did labs and concluded hat I had norovirus.
The paperwork says that if I'm unable to hold down any liquid I should go back to the ER and get IV fluids. I can't stop vomiting; first food from yesterday, then water, then ginger ale, now just bile. Now, I'm a med student, but I'm also very stubborn. Should I go back today? Or wait it out? Worried about dehydration as that's what kills you with these stomach bugs. What would you do? I don't wanna be a nuisance there or anything.
Ugh, I just want a nice cold glass of milk. But I know that wouldnt go over well, lol.
