What Causes Diarrhea Along With Vomiting And Profuse Sweating?
hi i have been having periodic bouts of diarrhea with vomiting and profess sweating. I would call it episodes now. At first i thought i was either sick from flu or food poisoning. But today it happened and i had not eaten anything yet. I would say it has happens a couple times a month or once a month? its so strange.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
As you inferred, it is not common to have frequent repeated episodes of diarrhea and vomiting due to infection.
There are other causes such as-- (1)side effect of medication
(2)thyroid disease
(3)irritable bowel syndrome
(4)inflammatory bowel disease
(5)food intolerance
(6)diverticulitis
You may need to be assessed by your doctor to find a cause. This would involve blood tests and possibly imaging of the intestines
I hope this helps
