Last week, I had loose stools for some days but this week, whenever I eat, I feel like vomiting, so I stop. Because of this, I've not been able to eat well and now, I'm feeling weak and dizzy.

It drains you down by loss of water and vitamins from the body. So sip water plenty of time to keep hydrated. Stick to plain foods like rice, toast, or bananas. If the problem persists, make an appointment to see a gastroenterologist.
