What Causes Diarrhea Long After Cyclospora Infection?

I am a 47 year old female that was sick with Cyclospora two summers ago. Since then I am not able to eat a meal without getting diarrhea. This lasts between 4-5 hours and leaves me drained. The cramping just gets to be unbearable. There are times that I cannot leave my house because it hits so violently. Any suggestions
