Hello welcome to health care magic Thanks for your query You didn't mention in the query about how many times you are going to bath room.. If the fluid loss is very high then you need to take parenteral liquids like IV normal saline... Apart from that you have to take antibiotics to control diarrhoea.. Fluid loss may cause damage to kidney but this is temporary only,,once you are taking fluids i will revert to normal... Consult general physician for further details Thank you Have a speed recovery Dr.siddartha
