I have been taking some Immodium and it seems to help but I still have almost pure liquid coming out...I first had vomit too for a day and now this. It is absolutly horrible. My stomach is grumbling almost 24 hours a day...like it never has. What can I do? I think if I go to the ER they will just tell me I need to stay hydrated....HELP

As you have lost so much of water from ur body first thing you have to do is Oral re hydration solution - ORS - or in glass of water add one table spoon of sugar and one pinch salt and one pinch rock salt - this is most needed as re hydration it self help the body to recover. If you have vomiting - can add lemon - or buy citrus ORS - of so just take one table spoon of water at while - only if u sip u will vomit .
If you still has diarrhea and vomiting see a doc
As home remedy you can try
Having - 2- 3 spoon of honey
Ginger lemon juice
Pomegranate juice also you can eat the skin - it stops diarrhea

Is your diarrhea bloody? If so, then you should see the doctor right away b/c the organism that is causing the diarrhea is also damaging your intestines.
If the diarrhea is watery, continue to keep yourself hydrated. Dehydration is one of the biggest worries with watery diarrhea. If your diarrhea is watery and you feel like you want to go the doctor, go ahead, but I would go see my regular doctor instead of waiting forever in the ER and paying much more for a bug that most likely go away by itself.
