Suggest Treatment For Persistent Diarrhea And Abdominal Pain

I have had diarrhea 6-10 times every day for about 3 years. My stools are oily, I always feel full and bloated, and have occasional abdominal pain. I ALWAYS have terrible gas. I have an urgency to defecate, and sometimes don t get to the bathroom in time. I am only 50 years old. I am 5 10 , 140 lbs., and an active teacher.
