1770029 tn?1325802355 Hi and sorry you are ill. There is no such thing as "stomach flu" meaning the influenza virus does not cause flu in the stomach. It is considered gastroenteritis. The symptoms of diarrhea, vomiting, low grade fever up to 100 degrees and possible cramps are caused by many things, virus or bacterial. However, the most common cause is a virus called Norovirus. It is spead from person to person by fecal oral contamination.
Avatar n tn If the child had an intestinal virus or bacteria, it would have to go quite the circuitous route to get into your your digestive tract, because airborne germs applies more to sneezing and coughing from colds.
Avatar n tn Sounds like stomach flu/virus , it has been going around this year,in the US dont know what country you are living but we have had here , it also seems to recur It may be a good idea to have her checked by your Doctor .
Avatar m tn I cannot miss any work and have three children at home. Everyone recommends different remedies for flu so I am a bit confused about what works. Please give me your flu remedy recommendations.
Avatar f tn According to the information given, your son has no active virus. Once someone has been exposed to HCV, they will always show positive for the antibodies, but the amount of active virus (viral load) is what tells you if you have viral replication going on. No active virus would mean not activity going on. It appears that he was exposed to the virus during birth, but cleared it on his own. That's a good thing. :-) Others may explain it better than me.

Avatar n tn Ooo gosh everyone in my house has a stomach virus, really worried about my 1yr old, she's not eating anything only sips on water, also worry I might caych it. .that would be no good. I'm 38wks today! !!
Avatar f tn It could still be a stomach virus, however, it could be a bacteria or even parasite. I recenlty had a stomach virus that lasted about 7-8 days. Have you ever been tested for or diagnosed with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)? Your headaches could very well be a sign of dehydration - with all the diarrhea, you can get dehydrated pretty quickly. Be sure and stay well hydrated - water, ginger ale, sports type drinks are all good.

Avatar m tn It is difficult to provide you with reliable information with just the information you have provided. Generally, dystolic dysfunction involves the filling phase of the cardiac cycle. Left ventricle hypertrophy probably indicates the heart walls are thickened and stiff and the inability to relax during the filling phase and that inhibits an adequate supply of blood pumped into circulation with each heartbeat.

55646 tn?1263660809 Nationally, there are at least three different studies beginning for the treatment of genital herpes. First, the Genocea phase one (first in humans) trial. Instead of an oral medication to treat herpes, Genocea out of Boston has taken the approach of stimulating the immune system to respond more robustly to the herpes virus in people who are already infected with the virus.
Avatar m tn Although there is still no complete cure for hepatitis B, there are 7 approved drugs for adults (2 for children) and many promising new drugs in development. Current treatments seem to be most effective in those who show signs of active liver disease Not every person with chronic hepatitis B needs to be on medication. You should talk to your doctor about whether you are a good candidate for drug therapy or a clinical trial.
Avatar m tn Treatment meds are really tough on us and it does take a while for our bodies to get back to normal and heal My nausea is caused by GERD and stomach acid, which I am taking prilosec (omeprazole) for daily. Stomach acid can do a number on us during and after treatment, as it takes a long time to heal and can often recur if irritated by the wrong foods or even stress. There are many reasons for nausea, this is just one. Check with your doctor so you can get to the bottom of this and feel better.
Avatar n tn she is going to a gastro doc i am just trying to get ideas because i am thinking the worst. Please understand that I do take my children for medical advice more often then i probably should.
Avatar f tn Thank you so much for the quick response. Against my better judgment, I was reading information online. I will find a way to live with this, but I wouldn't be able to handle it if I gave it to them. If you do not mind one more question, I would like to ask one. I was just diagnosed a week ago. I have my next appt. on Friday. I was confirmed through a blood test on Monday. Should I get retested? What test should I recommend to the doctor?
