I'm going on day 4 of mostly NPO besides liquids to stay hydrated. Finally sent my GI Dr a message. I don't know why it's their go-to, but they always assume virus still, until another symptom pops up to warrant more testing or the ER. He also said more testing right now likely wouldn't render anything helpful. If it is a virus, is there anything I can do to get it out of my system faster? I've been in bed all day, the kids are home with a snow day, it's crazy here.
