Sounds like: you are describing a viral gastroenteritis..("GI FLU") and its very unlikely a "leak" and even more unlikely symptoms which indicate that MRI imaging is necessary at this stage of the game!..you sound like you are doing the "right" think food-wise and you might consider obtaining OTC medication (example IMMODIUM-AD) Hope this helps!
