Hahahaha, thanks Michael  Jazz gave me a wonderful rest last night so I am feeling better this morning, keeping up the water etc. Jazz is great except for her rash and runny poo's, but she's is acting all fine and happy.
Oh, just a quick one Michael. Jazz has had diarrhea (sp?) for about a week now, if it lasts until Monday should we take her to the GP? She doesn't seem dehydrated, she's still feeding well, eating, not vomiting, and drinking her sippy cup of water, about 300mL a day. But her poo's are still gross, they're not green anymore luckily but they are yellow, and they STINK. I'm not sure if it needs to be seen to or if its just her getting it out of her system?

Over a week, yeah, might not be a bad idea to touch base with a GP and see if they want to send off a stool sample. Honestly, though, if it were anything nasty, she'd be dehydrated and getting sicker by now. You could go either way.

She's getting worse again now  Vomited last night and back to green toxic poo every hour, won't eat, won't drink, refusing BM. I'm going to get in touch with our home visiting service, otherwise we'll be off to the hospital today

If she's getting worse, I'd get her in to see a doctor. I think it might be time to think about sending off a poo sample to check for some of the more unusual or nasty bugs.
