I may have a day or two in between where I feel good then it's back to feeling like crap. nothing has changed in my medicines or diet.

Brief Answer:
Proper hydration is essential

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

You could be suffering from acute gastroenteritis or food poisoning. I understand what you are going through but this is a self limiting condition and replenishment of the lost fluid and salts is the mainstay of treatment. You need to take ORS (oral redhydration solution). Inadequate intake of fluids will lead to dehydration and will make you feel miserable.

Be patient. Take fluids. Take curd or yogurt as it contains plenty of beneficial bacteria.

Let me know if I could help further.
