HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The decreased oral intake and increased loss (from the diarrhea) would result in a decrease in his blood sugars.
Based on the symptoms of fever and loose stool, it is possible that he has gastroenteritis which is infection and inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract.
At this point his doctors would likely be concentrating on making sure he is well hydrated (getting enough fluids) and would also be checking to see if they can identify the type of infection present.
I hope this helps
