Toddler 5 years, with tummy pain & diarrhea since Oct 11, off and on no one seems to be figuring it out. Losing 2 LBS off and on too. Any advice?

Intestinal infections, including parasitic infestations, must be first ruled out, by doing serial stool cultures, stools for ova and parasites, and anal tape test.
Gluten sensitivity (celiac disease) is another likely explanation: special blood tests plus a biopsy of the intestines are required to make a conclusive diagnosis.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), a form of severe inflammation that affects the colon, is less likely at this young age but needs to be ruled out in the context of recurrent diarrhea and weight loss.
