Default Hi... still having problems

Hi everyone... I spoke to the vet again at the animal hospital where I originally brought my yorkie because after I stopped the medication, my yorkie had diarrhea again. She gave me peptic pills to give the dog and I asked about a probiotic [thanks for this suggestion]. I am to give the pills for 5 days and keep her on the probiotic, which I have been doing for 3 days now. She still is going 'soft'. I still have her on plain chicken cutlet with rice. The vet wanted to try a 'de-wormer' medication even though the stool sample came back negative for parasites if the diarrhea does not clear up. BUT ISN'T BAD TO GIVE A MEDICATION WITHOUT A TEST SHOWING IT IS NEEDED? My dog needs (1) updated shots (2) needs a dental cleaning bad (3) needs to start her heartworm meds again---- but Vet said not to do anything until diarrhea resolves... NO VOMITING AND MY DARLING IS ACTIVE AND ALERT AND EATING WELL.
