Hi.
The diarrhoea is most probably due to the antibiotics, which is commonly associated with antibiotic use. As for the meat like chunk that was passed per anus, this could probably be undigested food which was easily passed in the same form as it was consumed probably due to the poor functioning of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), mainly because of the antibiotics. Speak to your doctor about initiation of some antacid along with probiotics.
Best wishes.
