What Is The Treatment For Loose Motion?

I am having loose stool accompanied with a bit of mucous every time. As soon as I have my food, I feel a terrible cramp in my abdomen and have to rush to the toilet. This happens 3 to 4 times every day and every time the faeces is accompanied with mucus. On prescription of doctor, I already had antibiotic ofloxacin and ornidazole for 5 days but to no avail. Now, I would like to get my stool examined. Kindly let me know what stool test should I undertake.
