Okay today is friday.. Sunday I was very nauses, Monday Nauses with a headache that night I threw up and started having terible stumoch pain, Tuesday I started terrible diareha several times a day and its just like water. I had to call off work that day, I have been having this problem all week and it doesnt seem to get any better at all i have cramps with it and stumoch pain. My stumoch also makes funny noises and i have a lot of gas. I know this it gross but I need some advice its noon and ive been in the bath room 7 times
What I will over you is the advice that you need to see your doctor. Being sick this long with diarrhea and vomiting can cause dehydration. Not only will this extend your recovery time it can be very dangerous if you get overly dehydrated as it causes an electrolyte imbalance.
If you are dehydrated there are some over the counter products that can help rehydrate you. If you are to dehydrated you may have to go to the ER for IV re-hydration.
When something hangs on for more than two or three days with no sign of recovering it is always best to at least phone your doctor and see if you should be seen at the office or if they want to monitor you at home for another day or two. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]

Drink lots of fluids (though try to stay away from juices and most sodas) and eat saltines. Ginger Ale and Sprite are the best things to drink when you're sick because they have no color and are soothing. Sodas like Pepsi and Coke are horrible to have so definitely stay away from those.
I would give the doctor a call and see what they think. Take some immodium in the mean time so you can stop making multiple trips to the bathroom and just try and stay hydrated. All of the throwing up and going to the bathroom is going to wear you out, so definitely keep yourself with lots of fluids in your system. [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]
