Now im just left with really watery diarreah. Spoke to the doctor and sent a stool sample off today which will come back in about 4 days.

    Yes , norovirus has turned into dehydration causing you to still have diarrhea ... Drink sports drinks . They will hydrate you pretty quick plus replenish the minerals you have lost ... Feel better soon
