Hi.
Thanks for your query.
You have pain in left middle stomach and is non-stop stabbing in character- after an hour food- now diarrhea and fever.

This indicates an inflammatory character and you need to go for investigation:
Upper GI endoscopy.
Lower GI endoscopy after the diarrhea is settled.
Addition blood, urine and stool tests and ultrasonography of abdomen.

The treatment to be started with antibiotics and supporting medicines as you have diarrhea and fever at the moment; rest of the treatment will depend upon the findings.
