What Causes Tiredness And Frequent Bowel Movement?

hi

i have been feeling very tired recently, and have been passin stools about 4/5 times a day... some food appeards to be undigested, and it is softer than normal but i would not class as dioreah - i am constantly thirsty - but drinking aroun 3 ltrs a day. my skin has also become grey and i have huge black bags, and have spots across my forhead and chin and brow line - and a few on my cheeks. this is not normal for me... i regually exercise and take multivitamins, eat a healthy diet. with no changes in my lifestyle recently at all. so i do not understand .. i have started shaking a little too - which is no issue, but thought i would mention it. i am 21 and work a normal 9-5 job with no additional stress.

Hi
You are suffering from severe gastroenteritis.It is an intestinal infection marked by diarrhoea, cramps, nausea, vomiting and fever.Bacterial gastroenteritis happens when bacteria causes an infection in your gut. This causes inflammation in your stomach and intestines.
Drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration–You need to drink more than usual to replace the fluids lost from vomiting and diarrhoea. ...
Take paracetamol for any fever or aches and pains.
Start taking probiotics for few days.Probiotics are live bacteria and yeasts that are good for your health, especially your digestive system.
Take lots of fibre rich food like oat ,barley,wheat etc.Atleast 30grams of fibres should be taken every day.
Strict no to fatty and junk food.
Eat a lot of fresh vegetable and fruits especially those rich in fibres like Oranges,Pears and Kiwi.
Tablet pantoprazole 40 mg can be taken for symptomatic relief in bloating.
Avoid dairy products.
As the destroyed gut flora will replenish things will be normal.
