My heart keeps beating really fast and i have to keep going to the bathroom #2 and i could'nt sleep at all. is this a stomach bug?

Sounds like it: You likely either have a viral gastroenteritis ("stomach bug") or food poisoning. The rapid heart beat suggests that you've lost a significant amount of fluid. You should try to increase your fluid intake (clear liquids) to avoid low blood pressure.
