What Causes Acid Reflux And Diarrhea?

I have been experiencing heartburn, acid feeling in stomach and occasional diarrhea. Was on antibiotics a few months ago. Also take Zantac 150 About 5 times a week. Doctor wants me to take stool samples. Any suggestions on what not to eat or if I should continue probiotics? Could I have a lactose intolerance? Thanks!

Some suggestions that I have for you are:
