HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is likely that the symptoms are related to an allergic response to some component of the meal used.
The diarrhea would have caused increased heart rate because of the fluid loss. He needs to replace the fluids and electrolytes that he loss due to the diarrhea. This can be done with oral rehydration packets or gatorade.
An oral antihistamine may help with the rash and paracetamol with his fever and chills. If his symptoms do not resolve or worsen, it would be best to see his doctor for assessment.
I hope this helps
