Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history about a 64 year old patient having diarrhea, pain in abdomen and headache for 4 days. Unable to eat anything, never got sick before this time hence worried, planning to go to the Doctor if you are getting no relief...
As per the history you have provided, this looks to be gastroenteritis causing septicemia and hence the headache.
I would advise you the following:
Consult your Doctor / ER immediately as it is already 4 days and you should not be really late.
Tests of stool, blood, urine and ultrasonography.
To get started on appropriate antibiotics, PPI, Domperidone antacid and as may be required after clinical evaluation and examination.
This will solve your problem at the earliest.
