Outch, sorry to hear that! I already told my partner at work that if I get dehydrated he is coming over to give me an iV. Lol

Been there done that and it completely sucks! Hope you feel better soon!

How do u know if ur dehydrated?

I was dehydrated the 2nd week. I was tired/weak as hell. I felt awful

What I would give for some iv fluids right now! Were you having trouble keeping things down or just not taking enough in? Hope you get better soon!

There are several ways of telling if your dehydrated. Fatigue, dizziness, confusion. The big way to tell is something called skin tenting. This is when u pinch skin say on the back of your hand and observe for the skin to stay pinched in a tent look.

Dehydration - very dark urine, unable drink required amount of Water, tired and exhausted.

I have to stay over night potassium is extremely low and the lack of Fluid has brought me another uti.

Thanks everyone. Yes, this sucks for a Friday night!!!

Stay strong it is a learning process

Get well soon

I had to get blood drawn every 2 to 3 hours and I woke up to 3 bags for my iv - more potassium, Magnasium, and minerals. My surgeon will be by to see me today, I feel like I just got detention.
