Reason For Extreme Abdominal Pain, Diarrhea, Headache And Body Ache With Chills. Doctor Visit Required?
I have been sick for 2 weeks now with I think is the flu but for the last 5 days I got real bad with extreme abdominal pain diarrhia headache body aches on again off again fever chilles and I have not been able to eat any solid food. I have been living on water, water with electrolytes, and juice. Should I be seeing my doctor at this point or just ride it out and wait for it to pass. I'm 59 and have an auto-immune disorder, Lyme, RA, Sjogren's, Raynaud's.

Hi. 2 weeks is a big time to wait and that too with your medical history of present ans past. You need to be admitted and investigated to be treated according to the probable diagnosis of gastroenteritis.
