Hi,
Diarrhea is due persistent infection. So for weight loss is concerned it is due to loss of nutrients in diarrhoea and from bleeding in hemorrhoids. So as your diarrhea control and hemorrhoids are treated you will relieve from weight loss. Hernia has least impact on it. I feel you have multiple issues so need an examination clinically. I advise you report to emergency room so that it can be addressed properly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
