What Causes Abdominal Pain, Dizziness And Tiredness?

I have had abdominal pains for a couple weeks now. The pain is fairly sharp but not overwhelming. I have also felt sick (but not as though I will actually be physically sick) and have felt sort of dizzy and tired too. I have been irritable as well. Also, during and after sex it feels like my gut has been squashed up and the abdominal pain intensifies. Also I don't know if its relevant but I had black, tarry stools a couple months ago now.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read your history and understood your problems.

To recapitulate- pain in abdomen for couple of weeks- feeling sick, dizzy and tired. - had black tarry stools a couple of months ago.

I would advise you the following :
-Blood tests particularly for Typhoid, sugar and thyroid function tests, Kidney function tests and liver function tests.
-Urine
-Stool routine, microscopy and for occult blood tests.
-Ultrasonography of the abdomen particularly to see for PID- Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, condition of the Fallopian tubes and Ovaries.Any fluid in the pelvis.
-Gynecologist's opinion, internal examination will help to localize the problem.
-Get a course of 5 to 7 days of an antibiotic, metronidazole, symptomatic and supportive medicines like probiotics and multivitamins.
If Widal is positive you have to take an additional treatment of 3 weeks.
Get a proper clinical examination, investigation to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.
