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.
I have had severe nausea for going on 4 days now. Diarrhea when there was something in my stomach. The first two days I stayed in bed but was not able to rest or sleep much. Day 3, I thought I was better and tried to eat to get some strength back. Everything seemed to be going ok with eating. I ate a salad and even had a little chocolate. Tried spaghetti with sauce last night and immediately had diarrhea and nausea again. I didn t sleep much last night and feel horrible again today. I have RA and had taken a couple doses of tylenol and one dose of advil pm on the day before this started during the night due to pain. Had also used an essential oils mixture that a friend had given me - for the first time. What is going on??? Could it be viral and still going on after 4 days??
Hello welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advise.
Your symptoms suggestive of bacterial or Parasitic gastroenteritis. You should get further evaluated in form of stool routine micro examination and occult blood test. Until the reports done, ofloxacin plus ornidazole combination drug can be prescribed for five days. Take Vital Z powder with water to maintain hydration and electrolyte balance. Take semisolid diet more.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami
