HI.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
Your symptoms still look to be a form of gastroenteritis and the hard stools might have been due to Loperamide you might have been given.
I would advise you the following:
Get a proper course of an antibiotic, metronidazole, probiotic and go for soft bland diet.
Get the following investigations:
Blood- CBC- Widal for Typhoid as these symptoms fit into the description of Typhoid.
Urine and stool tests;
Ultrasonography for appendicitis or other inflammatory conditions.
Consult a Gastroenterologist if the treatment fails for further investigations, diagnosis and proper treatment.
