Schedule an apointment with a doctor. So far, it sounds like the flu. However, if he does actually pass out, or he gets any more symptoms that make him seem worse, you should go to the ER as soon as you can. This could be a sign of something more serious than just the flu. Until then, get plenty of rest and lots of fluids. Try giving him some pieces of banana also if he has been throwing up. He might need potassium.

Sounds like he might have food poisoning. There are many different kinds and some take 2 hours to take effect and some take a week so it's always hard to tell. He might also have the flu or something like that. I would suggest an over the counter medication called Meclizine HCL for the nausea as it will help him not to vomit anymore. Also give him some acidolphilus pills to help balance the bacterias in the tummy and entire body actually. Acidolphilus is the good bacteria found in yogurt but you can get it in pill form which is much better, it's also over the counter at any drug store. Good luck.

Sounds like flu - put him to bed, stick a thermometer in him to see if he has a fever and fill him with fluids.
If he can't keep anything down, and this has lasted for several days I would suggest stuffing him in the car and going to a doctor or a doc in the box.
Or call a medical professional - most hospitals have someone available 24 hours a day, describe the symptoms, and go from there.
Hope he feels better,

First be sure that no one else in the home feels the same as it could be signs of carbon monoxide poisining. I had neighbors that had birds build nests in their furnace outlet on the roof and carbon monoxide built up and they almost died. You can also get it from running your car in the garage or inside your car while driving if you have a bad exhaust. If you rule these out, he most likely is feeling the effects of a virus or flu and can be dangerous if he gets dehydrated. If he can't even keep liquids down after 48 hours, get him to a doctor.

Give him a teaspoon of honey, tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and glass of water. Keep him drinking and call 9-1-1.

You should take him to the doctors so that they can check him, diagnose and treat him. I hope he gets better.
