Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
We traveled 2 days by car from ohio to Florida. Upon arriving I had a low grade fever with body aches. The next day I developed mild gastric upset. By the 3rd day I was in bed all day with a very upset and unsettled stomach that caused moderate nausea without vomiting and watery diarrhea and abdominal pains. Now the 4th and 5th days I still have very watery diarrhea and lots of intestinal rumbling and gas and upset. I have been eating very little but am drinking fluids and keep everything down. I have taken Lomotil the last 24 hrs in an attempt to settle the diarrhea and intestinal upset. But it hasn t helped much. I still have watery, frequent diarrhea.
