Brief Answer:
Will suggest you stop imodium and review your diet!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this diarrhea. This raises the suspicion of possible food intolerance and more so if there have been any recent changes in your diet. I will suggest that you stop imodium as it is not best in acute diarrhea. Also, keep a food diary and try to match diarrhea episode with food types to see what is common in both diets. This way, we can proceed by elimination to address your worry fully. Keep me updated with this issue and we shall work closely to address it. Before I forget, please drink much fluids!

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
