Hi, Tony, it appears that it is the result of the diverticulitis, otherwise it may be due to the food poisoning, of viral origin, it may take its time to be cured.
I advise you to consult a gastro enterologist for diagnosis.
I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe lacto bacilli, furazolidone, metronidazole, and ranitidine . Thank you.
