What Causes Diarrhea?

My mom has very liquify diarrhea & feel like she might throw up on & off. She is going from hot to cold almost instantly. She said I m feeling cold, like my blood is cold, then 2min later she said I m getting hot again & prob not a minute later she said she was getting cold again. She said before when it started her hands felt tingling. This has been happening fro about an hour...I think.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history about your Mother having diarrhea, nausea, hot to cold instantly -hands feel tingling...
The most probable causes of such a problem can be:
Intestinal infection which give the symptoms, the electrolyte reduction gives tingling in hands.
This can be diagnosed by the following:
- Clinical evaluation by your Doctor, preferably a Specialist in the field like a Gastroenterologist
- Tests of stool in details and of the blood and urine.
- Treatment to control the infection and replacement of the electrolytes orally or by intravenous route may help alleviated all the symptoms.
If there is no relief further tests of ultrasound, colonoscopy may be required.
