Sitting In The Er

Luckily it's nothing too serious, but I'm dehydrated and I have a UTI. :( I starting running a fever last night which of course had me worried, so I'm relieved it's a UTI. It amazes me how much better I feel with the IV fluids too. Thank heaven for modern medicine!

I'm glad that's all that's wrong for you! GET WELL SOON!

What a bummer, I hope you feel better soon.

God Bless!

Dehydration can make you feel like you're suffering from something absolutely horrible! Thank goodness they got you on fluids - you'll be feeling better soon, I hope. UTI's suck SO MUCH. Take care!

Thank goodness that is all it was. Get well soon!

Thanks so much for checking on me. :) I feel a little better today but because I'm working so hard to drink so much, my calorie intake has been super low. I don't know how to balance it!

How does a doctor/ER know that you are dehydrated and need fluids? What other signs/symptoms indicate dehydration other than dark urin and not needing to use the restroom?

It takes awhile to get all things organized.. Protein .. Water .. Walking .. Vitamins .. it's exhausting mentally for awhile..but soon it all falls into place... Like the old saying : just take it a day at a time! (((healing hugs)))
