[|Human|] My husband is having pain in the abdominal area.The pains are irregular and inconsistent happening at different places.This started over 2 weeks ago and told he had a gastrointestinal virus.He also had sinus congestion and nagging headaches.  The most bothersome symptom is a complete lack of energy, he is fatigued all day every day and can lay down and sleep at any moment.His congestion has all but gone away but the fatigue is constant and the abdominal pain still occurring.
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for your query. Noted the history about your husband and understood your concerns.2 weeks is a long time to suffer from viral infection that caused stomach flu. It is possible that there may be a bacterial infection too. This can be detected by the following ways:Get a blood tests done for CBC, typhoid, liver and thyroid functions and also culture and sensitivity. Get the stool tests also done. X-ray and ultrasonography of the whole abdomen helps further. Since there is tremendous fatigue, serum electrolytes also should be done. If a Bacterial infection is found during the course of investigations, a course of an antibiotic, metronidazole and probiotics should help him the best. Electrolyte solution, plenty of oral fluids including fruit juices and multivitamins may help to get a faster recovery from the infection and fatigue.
