Whenever you have "The runs" or have alot of vomitting you can become dehydrated very fast...you need fluids...water is good, but something like Gateraide may be better since it will help replinish sodium,electrolytes and water into your system...:)
Gatorade flares me, you might want to try some mild homemade chicken broth. Make it with a little salt & a couple of small pieces of chicken...
The constipation thing really is not fun:(
Next time, one dose of MoM with a big glass of water and if it hasn't worked in a few hours, one saline Fleets enema... And then patience til it works (1/2 hour to 12 hours later).
Hope you're feeling better soon!

It sounds to me like you might need to contact your doctor. The heart racing thing is a little scary sounding. Also, you can be having diarreha and still be constipated. I hope you get this taken care of soon.:pray:
