Your symptoms are typical of indigestion or a viral infection of the gastrointestinal system.
So there is no reason to worry about your heart.
I would just recommend taking an antiacid and buscopan for the pain.
Some diet modifications are necessary during these days in order to prevent further diarrhea.
