Hyperventillation can cause your hands to cramp - sometimes feet, too. This is called carpopedal spasm, and is due to the temporary chemical changes caused by hyperventillation. It can also make you feel dizzy.
Not sure what the diarrhea was about. But if the doctors were stumped I don't know that you will find answers here!
