Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Based on your description, it appears that you could be having diarrhoea due to infection of gastrointestinal tract.
Kindly take a course of medication which contains Ornidazole with Ofloxacin antibiotics. Drink good quantity of water and fluids. Take oral rehydration solution (ORS) to prevent dehydration and loss of electrolytes.
Gradually, you should be able to overcome the problem.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
Wish you good health.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.
