Hii..diarrhoea since 4 months and not relieved with medications .So you can suggest your doctor to get a thyroid profile and if I am not wrong you already got an endoscopy and colonoscopy done which revealed normal.But still you can suggest your doctor for an duodenal second part biopsy to rule out celiac disease.
Mean while you just try to help youself by rectifying after what food or food products you eat increases your diarrhoea for example drinking milk,wheat products,protein supplementation etc.
if any of the food is involved then you can just avoid that food and try to see the difference .
hope this information helped you thank you.
