Consider probiotics especially Florastor if not allergic to yeast, avoid immodium products. Eat bland foods rice, bananas, applesauce. Drink 2-3 liters water, gatorade pedialyte /day.

ER/UC clinic: much too long. You will need testing of stool for bacteria, ova and parasites. You will need electrolyte and blood testing. You will need antibiotics or anti-diarrhea medication. Go today.
