Hi,

Noted the history of watery diarrhea after going for pasta meal wherein other friends also got similar symptoms but recovered well, this is about 10 days ago that you ate outside and still have problems.

It is utmost important to visit the GP for clinical evaluation, examination and investigations of blood and stool to get a proper diagnosis and management. You may need a course of an antibiotic, Metronidazole, probiotics, multivitamins, activated charcoal and so on. Avoid dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.

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

Regards,
Dr. T Chandrakant
