Stomach ache (Thursday), along with loose stools (Friday), Sunday- loss of appetite and vomiting (approx. 3 times) and also not feeling well today (not holding anything down.) No fever & isn't lethargic. Are these flu symptoms and would you recommend a trip to the dr? Tanya

Seriously why are you even asking.
These type of symptoms are NOT cold/flu, but potentially something worse.
GET TO THE DOCTORS NOW !!!

Maybe serious, maybe not... could be a plain old stomach virus, and in fact would be one of the first considerations (not that I'm diagnosing)!

The cure for a stomach virus is no food and only clear liquids like broth. No apple juice if diarrhea.
