Hi,
Yes it might be due to that oatmeal you ate few days ago.
It may cause your stomach pain known as acute gastritis or gastroenteritis.
You may go for routine blood tests and ultrasound of abdomen.
You may require antibiotics (quinolones with antiprotozoals) and symptomatic treatment like antispasmodics, antacids, antiemetic if nausea or vomiting with prebiotics.
You must consult gastroenterologist for thoroughly clinical examination and treatment.
Thanks.
