Brief Answer:
Please run to ER,,,
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am sorry for the situation that your wife is in.
You are reporting to have loos bowel motions. At this situation I would suggest run to ER. Your wife may be dehydrated. It may be related with GI infection.
I would suggest to take water or gatorade/ORS after every vomiting and diarhea. Imodium can be tried for diarhea but is better for moderate diarheas only. I would also advise a medicine for vomiting like gravol, ondansetron etc.
Wishing her fast recovery.
