Diarrhea: Diarrhea has many causes, infectious, inflammatory, and malignant. Sounds like you have watery diarrhea. I would seek the advice of a gastroenterologist. They can also perform a colonoscopy if you are worried about colon cancer, although diarrhea is an atypical presentation of cancer. This may also be Irritiable bowel syndrome. They can also test your stool for common bugs.
