I’m no expert - not even smart - but if it were me, I would:

Avoid all fruits, dairy, and high fiber foods. No Vitamin C tablets. .

Stick with rice, just plain white rice plus sips of Gatorade or Pedialyte to prevent dehydration, until you see improvement. Not too much liquid. Liquids are necessary for hydration but they can also trigger diarrhea and diarrhea is one cause of dehydration.

Then, once things are improving, try adding some chicken broth into the rice. Then wait. Next, try a small amount of jello to test. Then wait. If ok, then more jello. Then wait. If things are ok, add cheese a small amount at first. Then wait a bit.

If things are improving, try bread, potatoes, and other easy on the tummy, mild foods.

(No BRAT diet, the apples can cause loose stools.)

Hope this helps you.

Erica’s diner in Fairfax. Rozzis on Saturday/Sunday in colchester. The spanked puppy on Saturday/Sunday in colchester. Quality bake shop in Essex. Green mountain bagels in Williston if you want something on the fly, pretty great sandwiches plus they have a bacon bagel.

I think it has less to do with Boston than people have stated. Sure, it's a great city, I grew up there but it's become pretentious, over priced and there's no parking. I get job offers to work in Boston and that's a big no. The plain truth is this, people living in over priced over taxed Massachusetts suddenly realised what New Hampshire had to offer. No sales tax for one... Just think, for one, when you go out to buy a new car you can afford a nicer one because there's no grubby Massachusetts tax to stiff you with. The idea that New Hampshire is a "suburb of Boston" is laughable. New Hampshire is where you go to get away from it. The down side to that trend is the same folks who voted for higher taxes brought their dumb politics up here.
