My son (11) has stomach ache from Fruity Berryo's cereal. He threw-up 3 times and still has pain. Do what?

Question

Says he feel and look like a dead fish and wish he's now in heaven. Sure must not feel good! I also have no money for medicine.

Answer 1

Its probably not fron the cereal. He just comming down with something and he just happened to throw up the last thing he ate. Just keep an eye on him to check for a fever. If he gets a fever just give him Tylenol or somehting like that to keep the fever under control. Don't give him aspirin. Its probably a stomach virus which means he just needs plenty of water and something for the fever if it comes. Let me know how you make out OK?

Answer 2

I don't know from the information youve given but I would hope its not hairballs that the cats hacking up instead of vomit because thats a different story but I would call the old animal shelter and see if the cat ever had a problem there it could just be something they could advise you on. Give the cat lots of fluid it might have an intestinal disease or sickness. I would personnally keep the cat on a softer food if it is throwing up so much just to help the cat with the pain and I would also recommend giving it only small amounts of food at a time maybe switch to a three meal a day diet just to help it get nutrients. Hope I helped the vet is the best option talk with them about the money issue and see what you can do. Don't be stingy your cat might die if you don't get it the right attention.

Answer 3

You better get him to a doctor. It probably wasn't the cereal. My son was throwing up a lot and had a pain in his lower abdomen. It turned out to be his appendix. I took him to the emergency room and the doctor admitted him right away for surgery. His appendix burst in the hospital. He's fine now but I wish I had taken him sooner.

Answer 4

He may not have a stomach-ache from the cereal. You need to call a doctor. I realize you have no money for meds, but do you have medicare? Go to a hospital if you don't have a pediatrician you can call. Your son may have appendicitis, or something serious if he is throwing up and has severe pain. Please call a doctor.

Answer 5

it might be food poising. if he doesn't show improvement by tomorrow or the day after at most take him to a clinic and explain you have no money but need him treated. they will help you.
try to feed him some rice with a little butter for flavor. that helps to bind and settle his stomach. see if you can get him to drink luke warm or cooled tea with a lil sugar or honey to make it more palatable
it probly just needs to work it self out of his stomach.
next time don't feed him those over sugared breakfast cereals. stick to kix and those sorts of slightly sweetened not 100% sugar kinds. ick lol

Answer 6

I bet you're a mexican. And what the hell are Fruity Berryo's? I don't even think that's real cereal!! Take him to the Emergency Room at the hospital. Doesn't matter if you don't have money.

Answer 7

Probably the dye in the cereal making him sick. That happened with my son. He also was pooping in technicolor. Watch giving him anything artificially colored like that & have him tested to see if he is allergic to the dyes. Keep him hydrated while he is vomitting & if he gets worse or lethargic take him to the ER. Good luck.

Answer 8

take him to the doctor! how sure are you that it was the cereal? did he eat anything else that could make him sick in the last few days?(don't assume that the problem is what was in his throw-up) and you should check the expiration date on the milk.

Answer 9

Take him to the ER, even if you don't have money they'll still have to see him.

Answer 10

Duh; bring him to the doctor or urgent care.....
...And stop feeding him SUGAR for his meals!!!

What are you thinking? You're the parent, YOU decide what nutritional foods he will be given until he is 18-years old.... Do Your Job

But certainly seek medical help for him while you re-evaluate your meal time choices.
