This sounds serious. If he is unable to keep water down I’d recommend seeing a vet as soon as you can. Preston may be dehydrated at this point from the vomiting and diarrhea. There are many diseases that can cause these symptoms and he vet might recommend checking blood work to make sure kidneys, liver and pancreas are functioning normally and/or taking x-rays to look for signs of an intestinal obstruction.
