Sorry, to hear the problem has continued. I would keep her on rice and chicken, no treats or anything else. I would take a stool sample to a new vet...ask for a check on the sample..no examine. I would tell them to charge me for an examine if they refuse to check the sample without seeing the dog..but all you want is a 3rd opinion.
I would get a shot for stool problem..there are many meds that are given in a shot form and work well...I do not know the exact names of these meds..all I know is when Kate's mother was scratching at death's door with a terrible bout of diarrhea after whelping...he gave her one shot, IV fluid and by evening she was back to normal.
Best wishes and never apologize for posting...I would be also.
