Serious sickness?


Question Posted Thursday March 29 2007, 10:17 pm

My mom has been sick with a mild cold for about 4-5 days to a week. She's 45. Then all of the sudden last night she almost started vomitting. But she was having diarrhea. She had stomach pains earlier this evening, and had a terrible head ache. I gave her a bag of cold string beans in replace of an ice pack. Is she okay? What's up? I'm scared and worried! I value her health! So much! She had a tempurature of 101 degrees earlier...
Now it's 100.6 degrees. But it took hours too get down. I pray that she's ok. Is something seriously wrong?

The part that makes me nervous is that she's "half asleep." Along with the diarrhea and nausea, it could indicate that she's dehydrated and needs medical attention. Nothing else you said was particularly worrisome. If you cannot get her to go to the doctor, please call a friend or family member who's an adult to see if they can talk her into going to the hospital, tell you what to watch for, or reassure you that she's fine.

I hope everything turns out okay. I've made it through 106 degree fevers and things that are much worse than you're describing. Offer your mom fluids and Tylenol for the fever according to package instructions.

I hope she feels better soon.

Get her to the hospital anyway... you'll regret it later if you don't. And remember to watch out for her and pray for her.
Other than that there's really not much else you can do.

I would take her to the hospital. Getting sick more than once a month sounds abnormal.
