Hi,
I can suspect viral gastroenteritis. But, I also would like to check whether any other problem is there. So, I would like to give some tests:
1. Complete Blood Tests
2. Comprehensive-Digestive-Stool-Analysis
3. ECG
4. Morning Blood Pressure
These two tests will suffice for now. If anything wrong comes, it will guide the doctor to give the next course of treatment. So, I request to post the results of the tests given above.
Meanwhile, you can take these medicines:
1. Loperamide for loose stools
2. Pepto-Bismol for nausea
Also, follow these guidelines:
Clean surfaces and do laundry often. Wash your clothes and towels separately from the rest of the laundry. Clean surfaces in your home with antibacterial cleaner or bleach.
Clean food thoroughly and cook safely. Wash raw vegetables before you cook. Cook meat, fish, and eggs fully. Do not use the same dishes for raw meat as you do for other foods. Refrigerate any leftover food immediately.
Be aware when you camp or travel. Drink only clean water. Do not drink from rivers or lakes unless you purify or boil the water first. When you travel, drink bottled water and do not add ice. Do not eat fruit that has not been peeled. Do not eat raw fish or meat that is not fully cooked.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
