Hi,
Based from the information it seem like your fiance has a pain in his throat when he talks and he wakes up with fever and have diarrhea everyday about 10 times a day. And want to know what was wrong with him.
Their are two likely possibility 1) Irritable bowel disease due to stress 2) Infective diarrhea.
Advice - go to other physician and have it checked, his stool need to be examined for presence of any infectious agent.
Hi, I had gone through your query, your fiance has diarrhea 10 times a day with fever this suggest that your fiance having the infection . Symptoms of GERD are different . I advised to take proper antibiotic course , Oral rehydration solution/RL drip after consulting with your physician.
Hi, As he is having fever along with diarrhea seems that he might have stomach virus or GI infection. Give him antispasmodic tablet like Dicyclomine with paracetamol combination. Give him Ofloxacilin, tinidazole combination medicine for 2-3 days. Give him light diet. Give him plenty of water. Ok and take care.
