Suggest Treatment For Chills, Diarrhea And Back Pain

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...my boyfriend came down with chills and a cold two weeks ago. He was given a zpack and started feeling better. Two nights ago he started having chills and a fever of 101 again. The fever only lasted through the night however now he is no exhausted he can barely get out of bed. He also has diarrhea and lower back pain. He is a 47 year old man that is otherwise in good health. Does this sound like like the flu? I should add he did have a flu shot this year and this time around he doesn't have any nasal or chest conjestion. Its mainly about the fatigue and headache and lower back pain
