What Causes Recurring Stomach Infection And Stomach Ache?

Hi I had a severe stomach infection a couple of months back and ended up in the hospital with spasmodic stomach ache, loose stools and vomiting. After 4 days of treatment with Normetrogyl IV and Buscopan IV I recovered. I had the same problem a week back with less severity. I was in the hospital again for a day with Cifran IV and it got better. I have the same problem today but the frequency and severity of the problem is lesser than before. What is wrong with me? I am also a renal transplant recipient (Nov 2003) and I am on immunosuppressants.
