Husband has diarrhea.

[Sunflower318]

I'm like freaking out. He woke up ok this morning but then he got diarrhea and hes had it a for a few hours and he feels nausous. He doesnt have a fever or any other symptoms but im terrified it could be covid. He does work in close contact with people. Im so scared right now. Im starting to feel a bit nausous also but it could be nerves.

No not covid

And diarrhoea/nausea is quite well down the list of potential Covid symptoms. Such symptoms are quite common around this time of year anyway, at least here in the UK.

Be vigilant by all means, but try not to panic.

I have read on a few websites that some people only have the diarrhea and no other symptoms. That is what is scaring me

The only thing I can think of is a possible asymptomatic case, if true.

Also you should be careful of which websites/sources you view, as some can carry dubious, or even false information, especially those that are lesser-known.

Therefore, I recommend you only source your info from official, well-known, well-trusted sources.

I have to keep saying this: just because Covid-19 swaggered into town like John Wayne doesn't mean all the other diseases packed their bags and left town.

Do you know what is far, far more contagious than Covid-19 and we're now in the season for it?

Norovirus. It's so contagious whole hospitals get shut for it in the UK.

If your husband's shitting himself inside out the main thing to do is keep him hydrated; give him Dioralyte (rehydration powders) or its US equivalent.

My 3 year old has had a slight cough all day also. He doesnt have a temp either.
