With 6 watery episodes per day for 2 days, along with cramps and nausea, and no improvement despite electrolytes and fluids â you should not wait any longer. This level of diarrhea for 48 hours can cause significant dehydration, and the fact that you are not improving is a red flag. You need to be seen by a doctor today to assess your hydration status, get stool tests if needed, and decide if IV fluids and medication are required. If you feel dizzy, very weak, have dry mouth/no urine, or notice blood in stool â go to emergency immediately.
