Hello,
In immunosuppressed patients, there is a possibility of opportunistic infections like cryptospora, isospora, microspora, cytology megalomaniac virus Infection, candida, and shigella or salmonella infection.
Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Get it done stool examination and microscopy. Use probiotics twice a day for five days.
Please consult your treating doctor he will examine for possible causes and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
