Hi.
Thanks for your query..
Your history of radiation of the pain to the should and the neck has first to be checked by an urgent ECG and cardiac work-up.
The history of pain in the left side of the abdomen with loose motions, bloating and pain radiating to the sides and back is suggestive of severe colitis of the left colon.
I would advise you the following:
Take a course of an antibiotic, metronidazole and probiotic with activated charcoal and symptomatic treatment.
If required undergo the test of blood, stool and urine , a colonoscopy and biopsy and CT scan of the abdomen. and get the further treatment as p[er the reports.
