Need Investigation

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for asking.

In my opinion you need to go for stool testing, four episodes of diarrhoea in the last three months can have many causes like:

Infections
Inflammations- esp. crohns and ulcerative colitis
Drug induced
Malabsorption
Irritable bowel disease.

Please go for the simple stool testing to get more information about the pathology.

Thanks.

Please let me know the results, or any other information you want.
