5 Weeks Post Op And Feeling Bad. Am I Dehydrated?

Yesterday, I ate a coffee popsicle from Whole Foods. It was wonderful! But all night long I had to urinate.

Then this morning, I drank 1/2 a Protein shake made from Click (coffee protein powder).

Today I feel bad. A little dizzy, my stomach hurts, and my eyes were unevenly dilated. I'm super tired.

I've drank about 52 ounces today; 20 in the past hour. I've been averaging 40-50 ounces a day since surgery.

Could I be dehydrated? Really, from a popsicle further complicated by a Click Protein Shake? Do I need to go in, or can I just keep drinking?

Was the popsicle sugar free? What was in it? In my experience if it is something you ate the sick feeling is more immediate. I dont think you are dehydrated if you have been getting in that much fluid...I would think maybe you are just coming down with something. Take it easy and if you arent feeling better or symptoms are the same with no others (leading more like a cold or flu) than give the DR a call. Make sure to keep us post.

Probably need to give up the caffiene products. It could also contribute to dehydration. ;)

Please call your Doctor and make him aware of the uneven eye dialiation . Just to be on the safe side!!

Thanks everyone, I think there may have been caffeine in the yummy popsicle.

Tonight I had a decent dinner and have drunk (drank?) 65 ounces, and I am starting to feel better. I hate that I cannot have even a little caffeine.

I guess I'll skip the Click for now...
