    Thumbs down Help- worrying! In need of reassurance.

    I posted something about this yesterday and never got any replies and I am in need of some reassurance.
    My Mom, who is bedridden and in a hospital bed in the living room of our house, says she thinks she has a sv.
    For about 2 weeks she has been feeling n* but I guess it intensified the last couple of days and then yesterday she started having d*.
    I don't know why she's been n* for 2weeks prior but she is on a lot of medication, i don't know if that had anything to do with it.
    But since Thursday she'd been asking me for my "n* remedies" (i have a reputation haha) I gave her some Nausene tablets and also ginger ale.
    This was odd to me as she never drinks soda and the Nausene tablets have lots of sugar and aspartame which she avoids so I knew she must have been feeling badly.
    She's also been having mint tea and toast and such and yogurt and nothing is helping her stomach!
    She said it's all rumbly and hurting in the top area but she's only having d* and she's never even felt like v**ing.

    I am so worried because it's not like I can sequester myself, she's in the living room and I'm sure the particles have got to be all over the room, right?
    Can't spray Lysol or anything because we have birds. So worried..I know I come in contact with germs all the time but it's in my house!! I'm scared guys.
    Literally cried to my boyfriend for like half an hour last night about how scared I was.

    Just really need some advice, please

    Also, the only kind of exposure she could've had was at her doctor's office on Tuesday...but the d* started on Saturday, isn't that too long of an incubation?

    It kind of sounds like maybe her medicines are making her stomach feel bad. Especially since she has had *N for a little bit. People can have *D for many reasons too. Just keep your hands washed and clean the area around here with what you can. If you can't spray Lysol can you wipe things down with clorox? These are just suggestions as a precaution. I think you will be ok. I hope your mom feels better soon also. Hang in there.
