Thanks for your query
You had a UTI episode which was treated with antibiotics .
Were you given probiotics along with the antibiotics .
Antibiotics usage can cause diarrhea due to C.difficile infection .
So please take a broad spectrum probiotic .in addition stop all diary products and processed foods .Please do not eat from outside .
Drink adequate amount of fluids and keep yourself hydrated
Take black tea and toast with organic apple sauce
Get a stool C.fifficile toxin testing along with stool for culture and Ova a nd parasites
if you still continue to have diarrhea you need to undergo a colonoscopy by the Gastroenterologist because you might have some other cause inthe colon causing this problem.
hope this helps.
