Hi,Dear,Thanks for your query to HCM.
Dear I read facts of your query and reviewed it in context to your health issues submitted in your query.
I understood your health concerns and feel Concerned about them.
Based on the facts of your query the reply of your query is-
Your current health issues seem to be due to-Giardiasis or C diff diarrhea which are other common causes, which need to be verified.
Watery stools with starch granules- means acute enteritis from Cl.diff or giardial diarrhea, which needs to be kept in mind in absence of amoeba and helminths as a cause of diarrhea.
Hence Other causes, need to be ruled out,by verification with Physician/and or Surgeon.
Do's-
Consult with physician who would investigate physically and by stool test-study if needed.
This would fix the cause amongst the other possibilities.
You need to have Second opinion- with physician .
This would resolve the complaints of your's.
Constant followup with local family or specialist Physician-for long term would give you long reliefs in time to come,which would depend on meticulous followup treatment of your health concerns.
