Diarrhea like egg soup for three days, still nausea every time I eat

Patient's question:

The egg drop soup has been going on for three days, and I still feel nauseous. Every time I eat something, I dry heave. About past treatment and effectiveness: I got two injections, but it didn't work. What kind of assistance would you like: Could you please arrange for an intravenous infusion tomorrow? Or can I take some oral medication instead?

Doctor's answer:

Main complaint: "similar to egg soup" is considered to be a fine curd-like stool, which is a typical symptom of rotavirus infection-induced nausea and vomiting; it can be diagnosed if the stool does not contain mucus or blood.
Advice: The doctor recommends intravenous treatment for two reasons: first, intravenous treatment has the advantage of bypassing the digestive tract and directly entering the bloodstream, allowing for rapid entry into circulation; second, intravenous fluids can quickly replenish the water and electrolytes lost due to nausea and vomiting.
