What Could Recurring Episodes Of Soft Stools And Diarrhea Indicate?

I had very soft stools, diarrhoea, for some time and had it checked for bacteria or virus. All clear on that front. Two courses of antibiotics had little effect. It cleared for a few weeks and now it s back with diarrhoea symptoms. I wonder whether it may be caused by irritable bowel?

Hi,
I think you may be right. Dont try any antibiotic unless you are sure it is bacterial. Just adequate fluids, probiotics may help....
