Alternative Version:
I’ve had stomach pain for the past five days. It’s Golden Week, but I’ve been stuck at home the entire time. Today, I plan to eat udon, take my medicine, and get to bed early.
Short Tip: Use "I’ve had" instead of "I’ve been suffering from" when talking about an ongoing condition. Also, "plan to" can sound a little more definitive than "going to" when discussing intentions. Advice on Natural Flow of English: To improve natural flow, try to make your sentences concise without losing important details. Linking related ideas with conjunctions like "but" and "and" helps create a smoother narrative.
