rotavirus or norovirus

These viruses are seasonal like the flu and so are mistakenly called stomach flu or as a slang term. The Norovirus usually goes away in 2-3 days. You need to hydrate yourself perhaps with gatoraide. If you can eat have a banana or other food with potassium. Since you just have nausea it could be other things if you don't develop diarrhea. Food allergies, and other things can cause this too especially in the lack of fever.

It depends on what type of infection you have whether or not it is contagious. So if you have a type that is viral such as one caused by norovirus or rotavirus you could have a contagious type or a bacterial one like Clostridium difficile, Salmonella or Shigella pr Ecoli that has a toxin (not all strains have it). So you need to find out which one by having the doctor do some lab tests or telling you which one you have. The main thing is washing your hands well after using the toilet.

Hi, and sorry you are ill. Well, norovirus usually goes away on its own within about a few days. So, it may be bacterial or even a parasite. If you haven't had a culture done you should have one done. Have you eaten out a lot or at a friends house or family over the holidays? Did anyone else get sick? Your potassium would have to be extremely low (below about 2.7) for it to cause Afib but it is possible.

I'm 26.3 weeks and just caught norovirus from my 3 yr old. This is HELL. Been throwing up everything, even water for the past 48 hrs. Baby seems okay, and has been moving like normal...but omg this is the sickest I've been ...probably ever.

Last week I caught norovirus. I've sanitized everything and washing my hands more often. Can I get reinfected with Norovirus in the coming weeks? I read different medical articles online, and there seems to be a 6 months up to 2 years of resistance period before getting reinfected. Can anyone shed light? Thanks.

My son is 2 months and just received his first shots yesterday including the rotavirus vaccine. I noticed that after his shots and today he has been pooping yellow colored like normal but it is very chunky. He is exclusively breast fed and always has a little bit of a seedy stool but this is very chunky. I'm Just curious if anyone knows if this is normal or not. Could it be from the rotavirus vaccine because they do ingest it. Thanks.

No, there is no STD you'd have gotten from vomit, with or without gloves. (I'm confused though - you said you wore gloves.) I understand she was sick from far too much booze, but in case she also had some norovirus or something brewing and hadn't gotten symptoms yet, I wanted to include those.

I am not sure whether you were diagnosed with norovirus infection or you assume it is so. This infection is usually self limiting. You need to drink plenty of fluids. Aches and pain are a part of this problem. However, I would advice you to see your physician if the symptoms persist. Hope this helps. If you need more help, please feel free to contact. I’ll be happy to answer your queries. Please keep me posted.

The only thing you could get from a mattress is scabies, which is very uncommon now, or bed bugs, which isn't an STI but is more common. You could possibly also get norovirus, staph, e. coli, and maybe MRSA. https://www.dreams.co.uk/sleep-matters-club/health-risks-of-an-old-mattress https://www.menshealth.com/health/a19523027/how-your-mattress-makes-you-sick/ Before going, find out how clean the mattress are.

Hi everyone, I'm a little worried,for the last day or so I've been sick with the norovirus and today I've woken up with no pregnancy symptoms. I am 10 weeks pregnant. I had a bit of morning sickness, sore and heavy breasts but I no longer have these symptoms. Is his normal?

Hi, Do you understand that if HIV were spread in the manner that you describe it 1) would not be classified as a sexually transmitted disease and 2) EVERYONE would have caught it when jumped to the human species, and we would all be dead by now. Think about it. HIV has never been transmitted in an environmental setting.

The night sweats may be a fever that spikes and goes down to normal or not. It could be ulcer or reflux. Also, norovirus can give you similar symptoms without diarrhea. It only lasts a short time and goes away on its own. If it persists then I would persue it. Did you eat out recently? Usually, you get norovirus usually as a foodborne illness.

If their weight and height are increasing (no matter how slow), that concludes they are developing, however, it is a concern if they are not growing or gaining weight (or lost weight).
