Suggest Remedies For Persistent Watery Diarrhea, Fatigue And Loss Of Appetite

I have had diarrhea, very watery, for almost 3 weeks. Took Imodium but it didn t touch it. The color is strange to, somewhat of an orange tint. I m very tired and not very hungry. I have not lost weight which I think is strange. I see my primary Dr this Thursday but this is really out of hand.
