What Causes Diarrhea Along With Chills And Night Sweats?
My symptoms started 48 hours ago. They are diarrhea, which was yellow, watery and very foul smelling. I had chills and night sweats, bloating, lack of appetite, feeling full after eating very little food. I recently took an Imodium which has alleviated the diarrhea, but I still have the other symptoms. Is this simple gastroenteritis or something I should have more tests for?
