Suggest Remedy For Nausea

I am 59 years old. Very good health, on no medications. Have had Nausea vomiting for 3 days, Yesterday and today no vomiting but nauseas I have thought it was a GI bug I picked up. Unable to take any food (tried toast today made it worse) I am able to now drink ensure. (something to get vitamins in me) and water but that s it. Very tired, cold, no energy. How long should I wait to see MD? Can a bug last this long?

Hello,
Looks like you have got Acute Gastritis...
Please Take a drug combination of Pantaprozole 40 mg + Domperidone 30 mg 1-0-0 X 10 days on empty stomach.
Please ensure that you continue to eat/drink adequately else not only your weakness would worsen but your Kidney functions would also start worsening.
The more you starve the more your symptoms would aggravate.
You could have lot of liquids and avoid oily spicy food.
if you can't eat in one go you could have small meals frequently.
Would Recommend that you get your Serum Electrolytes and Kidney Function Tests done.
