Hi welcome to health care magic
You have history of left side abdomen pain after eating fish...
So it might be simple gastroenteritis....
For that take pantoprazole or rabeprazole drug for two week...
Cooked oatmeal help in soothing stomach
Avoid excess spicy and fried food
Fruit juice more
Avoid stress
If no improvement than antibiotic might be given empirically and USG done for further work up
Hope this will help you
Take care
