I have been feeling very ill since Monday. I visited the doctor on Tuesday and he checked out my ears, throat, heart etc for symptoms of the flu and he said I appeared OK.I am extremly dizzy, I have to remain laying down. I get hot and cold flashes where I start sweating and feel very dizzy like I am going to throw up and must lay down. I usually drink 1 liter of water a day and have NOT been consuming water the past 5 or so days so I am guessing I am very dehydrated.I have to go to work tommorrow and work this whole weekend. I need to get better tonight! I know I need to OD on water but what else would help?? Please help me I am so miserable :(
Answer:
Begin immediate ingestion of water and other clear fluids. Go slowly to avoid getting sick. Rinsing your mouth with warm salt water will increase the retention of the fluids in you body.
Popsicles, the fruit kind,,eat as many as you can tonight.
Drink plenty of water and try an over-the-counter cold or flu medicine provided that you do not have any contradictions to taking them. Something else you may want to try for the dizziness INSTEAD of the cold/flu medicine is something like dramamine (it may make you somewhat drowsy). Also instead of water try pedialyte it has the electrolytes you need if you are infact dehydrated. Oh and if your boozing it up, don't.
drink water, LOTS, but drink gatorade, propel, ect. more. It has a lot of electrolytes and will hydrate you a lot faster for a lot longer. Those drinks were made for that :)
do you have a whole foods market near you? they have a water that has eletrolytes in it and it is just water. not flavored or anything.it's reasonably priced also.
I would suggest going to the ER so they can get some fluids in you and also give you something to help you hold down food and water until this virus passes. They have things that can help. Insist on it.
You need help because you're dehydrated?? HOw old are you?If you make a mistake, next time you try to do it right by learning from your mistakes.
If you feel pain you say "ouch" or stop doing whatever caused the pain. If you're thirsty, what do you think you should do?? 1 litre of water is not enough! Double that. When i'm sick i usually drink gingerale.YOu also have to eat. Even if you're not hungry, just f***ing eat. A little at a time, light meals. Lots of fruits and veggies.And finally: SLEEP!
Drink as much cocoanut water/lemon water +honey all or alternate after 2 hrs gap.Source(s):
