Doc ordered IV fluids

I have to go in and get IV fluids because I'm too dehydrated. I promised to do better drinking but they said I couldn't orally "catch up". I am starting be able to get more in. I also got some Vitamin Water and Powerade zero with electrolytes.

I'm feeling like a failure that I needed this though. And they said if I didn't I could end up back in the hospital. Upside is they said it will make me feel better and that will be welcome. I've been sore beyond my belly area and way exhausted.

From experience, I can tell you, if you are dehydrated and get IV fluids you will feel SO MUCH BETTER!!! Sorry you're struggling but you're not a failure... you just need a little help. :)

Best wishes!

You will feel better very soon!! And it's hard to get enough in stick with the Gatorade 2 and vitamin water !!! I also use sugar free Popsicles and ice cubes! Sip sip sip !!! Healing thoughts and prayers!!!
