What Causes Diarrhea With Low Grade Fever And Sweating?

Hello. At 4pm today, my 7.5 year old daughter had a major, very loose bowel movement so bad she soiled herself. We hadn't seen anything like it since she was in diapers. At 3pm, she had a low-grade fever. At 5:30pm, she broke into a terrible sweat that soaked through her shirt, though she had not been any more (not higher) feverish since before 4pm. She was fully coherent, yet tired, and went to sleep, but had stomach cramps. It is now just after midnight, and she awoke hungry, but with terrible leg and arm aches now added to the stomach cramps. Before she ate her soup, she went to urinate, and called me to look at her red pee! Now I am scared. She is otherwise very healthy. We don't do processed or fast food or soda, but she does love candy. There was nothing unusual in her diet today. She did have turkey lunchmeat, which is unusual for her actually. She is in good humor and alert, but clearly has discomfort. What are you thinking upon hearing of this? Thank you for your time and care.
