Severe Diarrhea: Causes, Symptoms & Dehydration Risks

Question
while using the bathroom today, i  began to get very weak, began sweating profusely, and even started passing out.is this just a case of diarehea or something else?

Answer
hollie;

yes,this is due to the diarrhea. the distress of it all effects the whole body at time. like all the energy is running right out of you.

remember,even not-so-severe diarrhea can cause dehydration,which often leads to weakness and dizziness. drinking clear liquids during a particularly nasty bout help prevent dehydration,but sports drinks like gatorade are even better because they replace glucose and potassium-nutrients vital to good health.
