Understanding your concern. As per your query you are having symptoms of diarrhea and stomach pain. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like gastroenteritis , intestinal ileus, food poisoning , irritable bowel syndrome , lactose intolerance. Need not to worry. Drink plenty of fluids. You should take proper course of antacid along with proton pump inhibitors. You should take antacid after every meal and keep your head elevated while lying down. I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may order stool test , ultrasound , endoscopy along with that take history . Doctor may prescribe laxative , ornidazole or albendazole along with ranitidine. You should eat light and non spicy. You should avoid food like seafood and nuts.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
