Brief Answer:
yes, do visit your physician.

Detailed Answer:
Respected Madam
At age of 70 years, any fluid and electrolyte loss from body can take dangerous shape any time. You must see your doctor/ physician for this diarrhea.
Nausea, sweating followed by diarrhea indicate more towards an abdominal cause rather than cardiac cause. We need to understand the cause of diarrhea and treat it well. Likelihood of all this due to acute heart condition is less likely, especially if cardiogram was normal even after 24 hours.
Feel free to discuss further but do visit your physician on priority.
Sincerely
Sukhvinder
