Brief Answer:
Continue with above medications

Detailed Answer:
Hello! Sorry for delay. I really appreciate your concern but don't get panic.For bugs just get stool examination or simply take one tablet of albendazole empirically. This pain can occur in IBS also. I don't think any other pathology so continue with these medications. Also see whether milk or milk products worsen stool frequency, if yes then avoid them. also avoid artificial sweetner. Take a course of pre and probiotic also
