My daughter, (age 12, approx 5 2 - 115lbs) accidentally ate a slice of moldy bread two days ago and she has cillin allergies. She s been a bit nauseous, light headed & achy... just general malaise... since yesterday, but her appetite is fine, and bowel movements are fine. Is her malaise related to that? What should I do? BTW.... my son (age 14, 5 10 , approx 120lbs) also ate a slice, but no cillin allergies for him. He s been a bit nauseous with diarrhea, but appetite is fine.
Hi...1. Your daughters' malaise may be related to the moldy bread intake.2. Even your sons' diarrhea might be related to the same. Diarrhea - Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kids having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry. There is no need to use antibiotics unless there is blood in the motion. Antibiotics might worsen if unnecessarily used causing antibiotic associated diarrhea. I suggest you use zinc supplements (Z&D Chat Doctor.
