Diarrhea can lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. Dry mouth and dizziness.are late signs of dehydration. Pain is an early sign. Therefore, i strongly urge you to wake up your mom.

For your diarrhea which is more than 3 LBM- (loose bowel movements) you should take 2 tabs of the OTC- medicine Immodium. It works for me everytime. Also try to eat a BRAT diet. That is banana, rice , apple (apple juice or apple sauce) and tea. Green tea and yogurt will help. Clear broth and crackers will also help.

Just by drinking water won't help your diarrhea.although it would prevent dehydration. In the meantime, avoid drinking coffee which has caffeine. Caffeine and soda drinks are diuretics and will further exacerbate your problem.

You can take care of your acute diarrhea at home. In fact, diarrhea will usually go away in 2-3 days without specific medical therapy.

The following situations warrant going to the hospital ER:

1) If you have severe diarrhea along with high fever, moderate-to-severe abdominal pain, or dehydration that cannot be managed by drinking fluids

2) If the diarrhea appears to contain blood (may be bright red or may look like black, thick tar)

I3) If you appear very sleepy or are acting unusual (others may notice this and take you for emergency treatment)

just get her up and tell her, it could be anything.. it happened 2 me a few years ago and i had 2 go 2 the hospital.. found out my appendix burst

Please wake your mother and tell her how you are feeling because it would be bad if you were to pass out and she was not awake to get help for you.

When you have diarrhea it is good not to drink any dairy products, no milk, chocolate, yogurt, cheesecake, cheese anything containing those because that will only make it worse. Try taking your mind off of it by taking a hot bath and just relax get your mind off things because when you get your mind off of something, you will feel better. If you really feel like you just have to pass out, you should wake up your parents because if you do, nobody will be there to help you and it can become serious, this is something you should tell your parents right away. Try sleeping but have a parent with you, people become very sick like this when they don't get any sleep, or ate something their stomach didn't agree to, or dizziness can be cause by anything, not enough water. It you have trouble drinking water try using a straw.
I really hope you get better and hope this helps.

Wake your mom now! Let us know how you are tomorrow.
