What Causes Watery Diarrhea And Anorexia?

I have had watery diarrhea, nausea, anorexia for going on 3 weeks now. When symptoms started I did have a day of vomiting and diarrhea and played it off as the stomach flu. I haven't vomited again but the other symptoms have remained. My family came over few days after initial symptoms and a lot of them got it but they are recovered and my symptoms continue. I am 30 and healthy...should I be concerned?
