loose, yellow stool and foamy urine

I am a 18 year old male and have been excreting loose, yellow stools or diarrhea for a while.  I have also been urinating very foamy urine as well, and both of these have been going on for a while now.  In fact I remember it happening for a while but not realizing it might be a problem until recently.  It must have been at least a month.  I am relatively healthy, about 5'7 and 138 pounds (with a good amount of muscle).  Recently I had a blood test showing that my cholesterol was relatively high (i forgot to ask for numbers), but i believe this might be because for at least half a year I was eating tons of meat and working out to "try to get buff".  I have been eating better lately though, but the foamy urine remains (maybe it takes a while to go away? or maybe it wasnt cause my diet).  I'm pretty scared cause my sister in her residency told me my immune system could be not working and to see my primary care doctor right away, while I am going to do.  But in the meantime, any ideas? Thank you.
ps.  I currently have an ear infection that has lasted longer than any of my others have before (i occasionally get ear infections).  Sign that my immune system is not working?
