A member asked:
I've had diarrhea for 3 weeks. i've seen my primary care physician and all tests have been negative. he prescribed cipro (ciprofloxacin) with no change. any ideas?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a GI Specialist.: Diarrhea for 3 weeks duration is classified as chronic diarrhea. The causes are varied and include infections and non-infectious colitis. Medications (otc) and rx can produce diarrhea also. I suggest you see a gastroenterologist for a work-up. Good luck!
