Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history and understood your concerns.
Being diabetic, you should be very careful in taking any sort of medications.
Since you have started diarrhea for the last 10 days and have taken some medications for the last 7 days only after the diarrhea started, I would advise you the following:
Send the sample of stool for tests to see if bacterial infection is present.
Send the blood for CBC, liver and kidney functions, and complete diabetes profile including HbA1c.
Control of diabetes is very important for control of diarrhea.
Take proper antibiotic, metronidazole, probiotics properly under the guidance of a Doctor to get cured.
I find this answer helpful
