Have stomach pain and diarrhea. And the pain is not continuous also. What can be done?
Patient: For the past 3 days I have been suffering from short stomach pains that last between 3 to 5 minutes at 15 minute intervals.  This results in me having diarrhoea during each pain. What is Happening to me?  I don't think it is food poisoning as I have had that many times before and that turns out to be one long stomach ache but for up to 24 hrs max.  Can you help?
