Possible E.Coli or other Virus

[SablePoint]

*As a warning, this topic may be a little disturbing and for mature folks only so viewer discretion advised.*

I've had a very rough day today. I've had the runs all day and had a seizure. Although I'm a seizure patient(unknowed neurological disorder) the seizure was totally unexpected and off tract(my seizures usually happen when they are provoked by a common trigger or around my menstral cycle).
I've had the runs and gas all day and still going through it as of right now.


This is starting to seem like an illness - a virus. Does it sound like E.Coli? Or is it just something bad I ate?
If anyone has any idea of what the issue could be, please tell me - if not please help me find an active heath forum and post it here as I cannot find any that are active!

Regards,

Coniglio

Hon did you try calling your doctor? I know there are several viruses that are going around. If you can't afford to call the doc I'd suggest pepto-bismal, plenty of water/gatorade to stay hydrated and just relax. Just make sure you do not dehydrate.

Pepto has been my friend for many years. At one point I wanted to die to get away from the pain I was having, it felt like my insides had chainsaws in them and no doctor would treat me because I had medical care and was out of state. The only thing that helped was pepto. A few times a month I have moments of "OMG GUT ME, it hurts it hurts!" and pepto is my only friend.

I had food poisoning for my 18y/o's 8th grade graduation (in the pre-homeschooling days) and the only way I made it through it was pepto/tylenol and gatorade. And bunnybun if it happens after a fatty meal it could be gall bladder.

I took pepto last night and it stopped but I'm still worried. I'm feeling good so far, I haven't had the need to use the bathroom so far. But I'm still a bit worried. The fact that the seizure happend to occure while I was sick yesterday, seemed like there was sometype of connection.
I might call a doctor later if I start getting the runs again or have another seizure, but I'm not sure I can afford the treatment.

BTW, I've had food poisening many times, but the last time was about 2 years ago and I didn't have diarrhea(like I was having yesterday) but vomiting(which I didn't have yesterday).

This could be a very serious medical problem that is certainly not going to be appropriately diagnosed on a forum for rabbits.

You need to get to a doctor or urgent care center for proper diagnosis and treatment. A payment plan can be worked out with the doctor or hospital.

Thanks for your help.
But I was also asking if someone could help me find a forum but even if there's a person who's had it or knows what it is, as I could use as much info as possible.

Thank you for your help though, I will grab ahold of a doc and see if I can work things out.
