What Causes Abdominal Bloating And Diarrhea After Consuming Fish?

I ate a piece of Mahi Mahi that was thawed in its packaging on the kitchen counter. The next day I had a seriously bloated stomach after eating breakfast. I had diarrhea 2x s and was tired. I ate yogurt and the bloat dissapated.I may have had a fever. I also had a few chills. The next day I was tired and barely ate anything because it made my stomach hurt. I had diarrhea 3 x s. Today I was tired and ate little. I had 3x s in one sitting three times.I have been trying to drink water and I found a Diamoud pill,which I took after the 2nd session. Should I go get some imodeum or should I go to the ER??

Hello,

You are having acute stomach and intestine infection. For that, you can be prescribed ciprofloxacin and metronidazole combination medicine for a week.

Cooked oatmeal help in the soothing stomach. You can continue intake of yogurt as well. It's advisable to take soft and bland diet. Maintain hydration with lots of water.

Take Vital Z powder with water also to maintain electrolyte balance. If no improvement than stool routine micro examination and occult blood test needs to be done.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
