A KUB, and abdomen series, and of course a barium enema (which can be done with air contrast as well). And a CT or MRI of the pelvis, of course.

Benadryl® Injection I.M., I.V.: 10-50 mg in a single dose every 2-4 hours, not to exceed 400 mg/day.
However, fentanyl would be more common in an OP note (at least that has been my experience) and could kinda sort sound like Benadryl). Did they give any dosage?
fentanyl - Preoperative sedation, adjunct to regional anesthesia, postoperative pain: I.M., I.V.: 50-100 mcg/dose
