question: Hi. I have had yellow watery diarrhea along with some sharp abdominal pains and deep cough in my chest. The cough has be persistent for more than  a week. The diarrhea started a week ago. Tonight I got the chills and had to soak in a hot tub to warm up. I feel as if I have a fever as well -  this is very unusual for me. I typically get head colds once or twice a year but this is different and lingering.
