6. Blood. If you find yourself vomitting blood or passing large amount of blood in your stool it is best to get yourself checked out. I know some may find it nerve wrecking or embarassing coming in & talking about their stool but trust me, we are not phased & we want to help.

As an ED nurse I want to make a thread of some symptoms that require an immediate trip to the Emergency Dept. This is to hopefully encourage people to seek help and to not be afraid to come to us..cont

Ignoring signs of dehydration can lead to severe electrolyte imbalance & in turn can lead to other serious complications. A lot of people may feel dramatic presenting to ED for a stomach bug but not being able to keep ANY fluids down is serious & will be taken seriously by staff.

5. Diarrhea. I don’t mean come to the ED everytime you eat something that doesn’t agree with you. If you have persistent diarrhea and are unable to keep down fluids for more than 24 hours. A telltale sign that you are very dehydrated is if you are making little to no urine. Cont

4. Fever. By fever I mean one that is persistent despite taking meds. Especially if this is coupled with neck stiffness/soreness, pain in your eyes, headache or difficulty urinating.

[aoibhín 🇮🇪🇵🇸 @aoibhinh_]

3. Unexplained weakness. For example, weakness on one side of your body, difficulty getting words out or slurring your words, disorientation and difficulty walking.

2.3 Chest pain again. If you have a family history of heart problems, e.g heart attacks, and you are develop chest pain of any type, indigestion, palpitations, it is always safer to seek medical attention.
