many thanks for your reply
No change in diet, in fact have had no appetite since the sudden onset of this condition mid am 3 days ago and have not consumed food that would reference said color.
Stools are very watery and not substantial.
Stomach tender to touch and bloated and cannot pull it in - again tender. Waves of intense cramp - hourly.
many thanks
