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
