Can stomach flu, Gastroenteritis,last for 5 days?


Its been 5 days and although I have not been terribly ill the symptoms are still there and I feel a bit under the weather.

Yes it can it can last for over a week, just watch u don't get dehydrated. If it continues I would see my doctor

Most definately! But I'd say if you still feel that way in a couple of days.. I would go see your doctor. Good Luck :)

No such thing as stomach flu. Gastroenteritis, yes. I trust you are treating your symptoms and if you see no change in your condition or see a worsening 3-4 days from now, see your doctor. If it persists, it may not be gastroenteritis.
