What Causes Fatigue, Abdominal Pain, Nausea And Chills?

my boyfriend presented with fatigue three days ago, then he started complaining of stomach pain followed by excessive diareah the next day and throwing up that night. after he threw up he felt immediately better . now he has cold chills and nausea. has not thrown up since last night. does not want to eat because he feels like he will throw up right away. tried eating some vanilla wafers at lunch today and bread this evening. he is super weak with fatigue and has lower abdominal pain that reaches into the front groin or pelvic area . it comes and goes. he does not have insurance and doesn t want to go to the doctor. I ve been trying to have him drink fluids . he has had some gatorade today. maybe a 6 oz glass and also one 12 oz bottle of water. I m just worried . any suggestions would help .

Hi, thanks for your question in HCM. Very sorry to hear about your boyfriend.
Diarrhea, vomiting, fatigue, pain abdomen,chills are suggestive of the following conditions like gastroenteritis, colitis, appendicitis, acid peptic disorder. Weakness is very common after several episodes of loose motion and vomiting as the body becomes dehydrated too.
Encourage him to take plenty of oral fluids. Take some Oral Rehydration Salt.
Avoid dairy products, spicy and oily food.
Give some probiotics.
If the above measures doesn't help and abdominal pain persists, kindly visit your local doctor to find out the exact cause.
Thank you.
