Seems that you may have a recent infection. It could be viral or bacterial. Hope you’re not passing blood with bowel movements. Plenty of oral fluids will help prevent dehydration but it’s been quite a few days so I suggest that you get to the ER for COVID PCR and other tests as well.
Diarrhea for 2 weeks puts it in the acute diarrhea category, so this is usually infectious, often from food poisoning. It should resolve but if it lasts another 2 weeks or more then this is considered chronic diarrhea and you should get evaluated by a physician in that case since many other causes could be involved.
