Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
Please give additional history for me to assist you better:
Your age and gender please.
Any medications have you taken or taking at the moment?
Any investigations?
Since when is the diarrhea? Since when is nausea and pain in abdomen?
Have the kidney stones been cleared?
What is the present status of Ovarian cyst.

Please give all details.
You may start taking a PPI like Omeprazole.
Domperidone for nausea.
Antispasmodic like Dicyclomine or Hyoscine.
Send samples of blood, stool and urine and have Ultrasonography of abdomen to know the present status of kidney stones and ovarian cyst and also to know about the possible swelling of intestines, appendicitis and so on.

I hope this answer helps you.
Please give feedback and details.

Diarrhea started middle of night but felt like this for last few days -
I first thought was stone but then the flank pain went away and I had my droid so chalked it up to a painful cycle - they been off last few months -
Just turned 40 Monday - I suffer migraines was at dr for shot for relief due to hormonal migraine then that same day this started. BM is watery and does smell metallic but my mouth tastes like ..BM - I am trying to decide on hospital for cpl tests but always assume could be worse and tend to wait. Family history of gallbladder issues and diverticulosis
I HAVE bladder IC- and have had history of stones and cysts but usually doesn’t feel this way or the belly button pain so bad

Odd but I got a tiny nose ring stud on March 3-
Monday the 11th while I was n dr for migraine had her check nose bc I’ve had cpl sinus infections this winter she said a little red but looked fine and the piercing looks fantastic so probably no sort of infection that I got from piercing -?-

Brief Answer:
Please get investigations and proper management asap.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your feedback.
Watery BM with metallic smell, nausea and bad taste in mouth indicate that you have Gastroenteritis.
Hence get the stool, blood and urine tests so that you can get a prescription based proper antibiotic, metronidazole and probiotics to overcome the problems asap.
Also take the symptomatic treatment as mentioned above.

It is fine is the nose piercing is without infection.

Take plenty of oral fluids and electrolyte solutions to avoid dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.

Take care.
Wishing an early proper diagnosis and proper management to get a possible cure.

With Regards.
