Yes, it was awful. She picked up some kind of bug either at the pet friendly hotel we stayed at or when we went into San Franscisco, at the pier I put her in a small patch of grass to go pee. The throwing up was just a few days but the diarhea lasted off and on for several weeks. It was not fun. But she is very healthy now. I just fed her chicken and rice and baby food. We did find out during this time that she is lactose intolerant. I have her on daily lactobacillus cultures now to keep her tummy healthy.
Good Luck and prayers for a very speedy recovery.
