R/O GASTROENTERITIS : Acute onset of symptoms is most consistent with gastroenteritis. You need to rest , fast for 8-12 hrs then clear liquids as tolerated. You need full exam and lab screen&stool culture to rule out infection. Normally cipro (ciprofloxacin) is prescribed empirically If symptoms persist abdominal US or CT to rule out appendicitis. If it is vital it will resolve in 24-72 hrs. If fever or pain worsens seek ER eval.

See DR NOW: You are in trouble. Do not delay. Diagnosis and therapy depend on exam and lab. At the least you need an IV.
