What is rota virus?

Answer 1

I have had Rota Virus before..and let me tell you it is no fun.. Rota virus is a virus that you can catch from a restaurant that you have ate at and is not sanitary..(usually in Chinese resturants, that's where I got my disease)..Or a hospital, doctors office. Rota virus usually has the symptoms of diahrea and vometing and maybe more. When I had rota virus I had it for 17 days. If you do have the symptoms of rota virus DO NOT TAKE ANY MEDICATIONS FROM STORES IT JUST MAKES IT WORSE. I learned that myself.. I had taken so many medications..just to where my diahrea was pure black. It had a foul smell as well. I recomend contacting a doctor and if they tell you to give it a day do that but after that and they tell you to give it another day DO NOT! From all the medications i took i took one that was a liquid and made me vomet...not because of the virus mostly because of the taste of the medicine...Even after every sip of water I took i had to go...attention* DRINK PLENTY OF WATER OR YOU WILL DEHYDRATE * I got put in the hospital and had to spend 2 nights..they put me on IV's and I was all better....you will lose your appetite for sure...I went 3 days without eating a thing BUT i drank ALOT OF WATER and ONLY WATER!!!!!!!!!!!! goodluck!
