Avatar m tn Also of note today on my last day on levaquin i started to have abdominal pain, diarrhea and had a fever of 101.3 however 2 days ago I visited a friend who also had similar symptoms of diarrhea/abdominal pain and we ate lunch together sharing a meal.

Avatar f tn (The hollow right under your ribs, in your upper stomach) Other symptoms include nausea, vomiting, fever, malaise and general aches and pains. For most people symptoms subside within 1-3 days but you're contagious much longer. You can still pass the virus through your stool for 2 weeks or so and it can survive on surfaces for a long time too. Just take it easy, eat bland foods and rest a lot.

Also Extra Virgin Coconut Oil 2T daily will help as it is anti-fungal, anti-parasitic, anti-viral and anti-microbial.
Avatar m tn Hello, doctors. I'm a young, sexually active gay male. From time to time I meet a man from the Internet and engage in safer sex practices like fellatio (mostly with me performing it) and mutual masturbation. I never engage in anal sex with these men, and I always, always ask about HIV status. My last test was two months ago and the result was negative. So, normally, I'm not very worried about HIV. However, I have a concern that I hope you can address.

Avatar n tn m concerned b/c 1 day after the massage, I became nauseous. 2 days later I had nauseau, diareah, fever and night sweats. My doctor said I have gastroenteritis.

Avatar n tn If I were in your situation, if after 7-10 days I had no symptoms like oral sores, sore throat, or gastroenteritis, I would not feel a need for testing and would continue unprotected sex with my wife without fear of infecting her.

Avatar m tn t think that eating spicy food usually will give you burning genitals and fevers. You can get gastroenteritis (stomach) with a fever but am not sure the food is related to what you are experiencing. Typically a fever is related to an infection or virus.

Avatar n tn The prime one which needs to be ruled out is gastroenteritis. Gastroenteritis is an irritation and infection of the digestive tract. It can often cause sudden and sometimes violent upsets and may be confused with spastic colitis.

Hope it helps.
