Gastric Flu or Food Poisoning???

The doc also not sure...anyway, he said tat now got a lot of viruses flying ard and last nite alone he already saw alot of kiddos wif similar symptoms like Amadeus...

anyway, this is the story....

Amadeus coughed very badly in his sleep and ard 3pm am, he vomitted big time, out came his dinner and hb changed the bedsheet. Amadeus felt nausea n vomitted some phelgm out again n I bathe him after tat. We thought tat this is the end but who knows, within minutes upon hitting the sack, he vomitted again...luckily hb reacted fast n quickly carried him to the bin to let him carry on his vomitting hence no need to change bedsheet. After tat, I cleaned him up and I slept wif him while hb went to sleep wif Andre. Who knows, jus when I was falling asleep, Amadeus stirred in his sleep and vomitted out alot of yellow juices and phelgm. I quickly on the light n to my horror, I saw him lying face up on the bed wif vomit all over his face and on the bed.

I quickly woke hb up and told him tat something was not rite cos normally Amadeus only vomitted once if it was due to coughing. This time round, he would vomit whenever he drinks water (luckily we didn't give him any milk). And his 'want to vomit but nothing to vomit' expression is so pitiful cos I knew how terrible tat feeling was. I was feaked out and decided to bring him to KKH at 6am while hb stayed at home wif Andre and went to work after my mom came over.

Luckily there were not much patients at the A&E when we reached there at abt 6.30am. So we managed to see the doc relatively fast (he vomitted one more time). He need to stay there to take some anti-vomitting med and glucose water to see whether his vomitting continues. Luckily, no more vomit and after examining by the doc and collecting his medication, we went to the food court for some porridge and the exhausted Amadeus fell asleep on the way home.
