Suggest Natural Remedies For Prolonged Diarrhea

I am a 56 year old female with diarrhea lasting more than a month due to what I think was Mobic prescription for 30 days for tendonitis in my foot. I have not taken Mobic for over a week and the diarrhea persists, with un digested food in the mix, as well as an urgent need to go about 30 minutes after eating. I eat organic foods, grass fed beef and free range chicken, avoid sugar and substitutes, have entree salads at least once a day with olive oil and vinegar. I do not eat fried or fast food. I have tried probiotics and kefir to get my gut flora healthy again, but nothing seems to help. I DO NOT want to treat this with yet another prescription medication that will cause other unwanted side effects. Any ideas for a natural solution?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to a chronic diarrhea. I suggest using an over the counter option such as Imodium to treat the diarrhea.

I also suggest using daily probiotics. I recommend to eat a plain diet with bananas, rice, apple and drink liquids.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
