Yeah a few: cannot say in your particular case, but generally,this is due to not having the bile that digests fat. Low fat, small portions eaten slowly. AND there's a variety of prescriptions that may help: 1) plastic resin that binds food fat 2) medicines that slow down the gut.

"Cure" for diarrhea: First define the problem (do you have soft or frequent stool?), circumstances under which diarrhea developed (malabsorption, pancreatic maldigestion, food intolerances, stressful times, exposure to ill individuals, food poisoning, ischemic gut, inflammatory colitis, etc.), severity (stool volume, dehydration, blood, night-time awakening, weight loss), ; duration. The "cure" depends on diagnosis.
