If you have gastroenteritis, you should:
- Get at least two tablespoons/one ounce/30 cc of fluid every 15 minutes
- Advance diet as tolerated; don't just eat bananas, rice, apples and toast, as you will not get enough protein
- Avoid fried foods and dairy until you feel better
- See your health care provider if you have recently traveled, gone camping, or had sex with a man who has sex with men.
- See your health care provider if you have abdominal pain not resolved with defecation
- See your health care provider if you have yellow discoloration in your skin or eyes.
