Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I wasn t able to sleep last night due to severe intestinal and lower back pain when I lay down. The pain is tolerable when I am standing or sitting. I think I may of some type of food poisoning. I had yellow squash for dinner -- it was the only thing that I had that my wife and kids didn t eat. They are fine. I am thinking I may have cucurbitacin poisoning. The other option might be e coli. Now that I am at work and sitting up I am noticing pain by my kidneys when I take deep breaths. How worried should I be about this? Should I seek medical attention or wait to see if this subsides?
