Hi..
Thanks for contacting HCM for health query.
I am Dr.Shanmuga vadivu answering your question.
You have a very long history of diarrhoea and it has to be looked into.
Have you have underwent investigations to find the cause of it.If I had a patient like this in my outpatient department I would do motion complete,blood sugar,thyroid profile,ultrasound scan abdomen and colonoscopy.
If you have already underwent investigations and nothing remarkable has been found it could be irritable bowel syndrome
Till forth you meet a doctor help yourself with dietary probiotics like curd
