I would definitely go to an Emergency Room so they can run tests to see what's wrong. Let us know what happened. Good luck.

Sounds like norovirus(winter vomiting bug). Sip water or suck ice cubes, no dairy and take paracetamol for any pain. Use seperate towels and cutlery etc and keep youself isolated, it is highly contagious and only takes a few of the viruses to get ill. Whatever you do don't go to the hospital or doctors as people who are already ill can get very sick and it can kill if they're immune system is already compromised. Stay off work for a minimun of 48 hours after your last bout of diarreah or vomiting and be very thorough with hand washing as you are still contagious for up to 2 weeks aftertwards. If symptoms don't ease up call 111 for advice but please stay indoors.

Totally agree with everyone else you must get this seen too. I wish you well as soon as possible. Take good care of yourself. 🤗🤗🤗🌹🌹🌹xxx

I totally agree with chubbylover78 in that it certainly sounds like the Norovirus and very contagious. Drink plenty and stay indoors and if worried phone the doctors/111.

Here's to a speedy recovery.

It could be classic norovirus in which case no they won’t want you in A and E. Keep drinking fluids and rehydration salts like dioralyte, if you are still unwell contact GP or 111. Hopefully you are beginning to feel better.
