From the symptoms that you have mentioned you could be suffering from mixed dysentry. taking imodium to stop the diarroehea could be a dangerous step. Instead you should immediately consult your GP who will look into you hydration status and most probably start you on anti microbials and rehydration therapy as he deems suitable.
