I'm now on my third week of mysterious diarrhea (sorry if TMI). No apparent cause.

I've been eating basically BRAT diet for three weeks, drinking gatorade to stay hydrated, and I've also tried two days of activated charcoal, eating cooked persimmons for several days, and now I'm taking a probiotic (Phillips Colon Health) daily. These things seem to be helping make a gradual improvement.

Hoping I'll be back to normal soon as my nutrition and hydration (and by extension my exercise and energy levels) have definitely taken a hit.
