Job has been throwing up this week. While we believe it's only a virus, we were concerned about the duration as well as dehydration and weight loss, so we brought him to the ER today. Our first ER visit of 2017!
Until he provides a stool sample, tests can't determine what (or if a) bacteria/virus is the root cause.
He is being prescribed a week on reglan to help him keep food and drink down and we will be following up with gastroenterology and cardiology later this week.
It's hard to see the great toll a common illness wrecks on his compromised body.
