Can Stomach Virus Be The Cause Of Severe Diarrhea And Stomach Ache?

I seem to have gas very bad I burp it seem to seems to smell very bad I burp about 15 times in an hour. I wake up in the middle of the night with the same bad gas. I have noticed my stomach hurting and diarrea. I have tried to cut out carbs and eat more fruits and veggies and that seems to help alittle. I have tried over the counter gas pills but they give me very bad diarrea. I lost my job and have no health insurance. I thought maybe stress or a stomach virus but this has been going on for 3 wks now

Hi. Stomach pain with diarrhea and foul smelling gas are suggestive of an infection in the intestine and you need to take antibiotics to get a cure.
