bad head cold five days ago, leg cramps four days ago, vomiting and diarrhea three days ago - stomach cramps/spasms currently bad enough to be doubled over - stitch on left side above hip bone - pressure not helpful - bending over helpful. Continued diarrhea. Pain extends often through to middle/lower back as spasms - intense enough to not lay on back. Headache like hot poker through left eye socket. Eating and/or drinking aggravates stomach. Thirst for cool drinks, if at all. Spasmodic cramping worse early evening into night. Gaseous after ingestion of slightest amount substance - food or drink. No fever. Apathetic, dull thinking ("hard to think"), disinterested, occasional fearful spells, some clinginess - likes company. Pale and dusky complexion, but not blue. I'm having some concerns about keeping her hydrated because of continued diarrhea. I started with Arsenicum 30c - 7-8 doses over 36 hours - thinking at first it might have been food poisoning - but as I gained more info, I believe it is either a continuation of the cold/flu or perhaps a parasitic thing. Any suggestions appreciated. thanks.
