What Treatment Is Suggested For Indigestion?

Hi, I ate some oysters last Monday and felt fine. Later in the week I felt very nauseous but have not been sick. I have also had diarrhea and some stomach discomfort and tenderness. On Friday I felt ok but then yesterday I felt nauseous again and then last night I had stomach pains, and indigestion and heartburn, and very watery diarrhea which was grey in colour. I feel a bit better today but still a bit queasy and my stool is now a bit more formed but still grey in colour. I do not have a fever, headache, rash or anything that would appear abnormal. I am hoping it will just go away but I am concerned that there might be something more seriously wrong and perhaps it has nothing to do with the oysters? Should I see my doctor, please advise? Thank you.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, I had gone through the history given here, from this I could say that it could be food allergy that might caused the dyspepsia in second thought infection is also doubtful, the given symptoms also suggest the increased acid secretion.
Although it may not be serious condition may comes around on its own, only the infection may be matter of concern, it is better to have some medicine on precaution basis, and for that you can see the doctor.
hope this information helps.
