Hello dear
Understand your concern

Just take the alternative medicine by consulting your doctor to prevent diarrhea
Stomach pain and diarrhea after eating could be a :
Irritable bowel syndrome, Celiac disease, infection of gastrointestinal tract
Inflammatory bowel disease: associated with blood in stool
Microscopic colitis.
I advice to to consult the Gastroenterologist for better evaluation and undergo following investigation:
Stool microscopy and culture
Blood tests: Full blood examination, LFT, ESR, and
serological testing for coeliac disease
Abdominal ultrasound, endoscopy to rule out the ulcer and colonoscopy.
Hydrogen breath testing to rule out malabsorption.
Doctor will give following advises:
Take solubel fiber like ispagula husk.
Avoid spicy diet , take small frequent meal rather than large meal.
Anti diarrheal: loperamide.
SSRIs and atypical anti psychotic:fluoxentine, clozapine.
anti spasmodic like mebeverine and dicyclomine
Sporolac sachet
Avoid stress and do regualr exercise like walking and yoga.
Hope this may help you
