Bowel infection: Sounds like a bowel infection of a bacterial nature although viral gastroenteritis certainly cannot be ruled out at this time. You should obviously keep your hydration status up by drinking lots of fluids and make an appointment to see a doctor as soon as possible. You should start collecting stool samples on different days. The doctor will want to send them to the laboratory for analysis.
