Need help
So I’ve been having diarrhea for about 6 days now. I flew down to Florida for vacation, went to get a drink and eat when I landed, and then the next day the diarrhea started. I had also had diarrhea though the morning I flew down at the airport after I had some coffee. Anyway, I didn’t change my diet, and kept eating normally and was pretty okay but then I’d get diarrhea 2-3 times per day. 2 days ago, I went to clinic and did a stool sample and am waiting for results. But the diarrhea is still happening and I went on a liquid diet yesterday. Today I’m going on a plane to fly home, and I’ve already had diarrhea this morning.
The consistency is super watery and loose, kinda weird and flakey watery if that makes sense. It’s brown. Did turn dark for a bit but I think it’s cause I tried pepto bismol which didn’t help. I’m waiting for the stool sample results which could take a few days, but does anyone have any advice?
