A member asked:

I have diarreah for 1 week. 5-6x a day and nausea. gastro testing shows no infections. i'm on imodium but doesn't seem to help much. what could this be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This could be a prolonged viral gastrointestinal tract infection or some sort of food intolerance or food poisoning. Avoid roughage & dairy products. Drink lots of fluids including room temperature flat ginger ale. If imodium & soft, bland diet doesn't help, your MD.may be willing to prescribe lomotil and repeat the stool culture for enteric pathogens including ova& parasites
