You do sound dehydrated. If your feeling that bad you should go to the ER They can Iv you up.

Omgosh... It's sooo hard to stay hydrated the first month, or at least it was for me I was severely dehydrated at about 2 maybe 3 weeks. I peed once a day and it was very dark. I was dizzy. Had a bad headache. And had dry mouth. Hope you went to er- after 3iv bags I felt better than what was normal at the time.

The blood work should tell the story. In the mean time, your symptoms definitely fit dehydration so you may want to give some serious attention to getting 64oz of Water (or at least fluids) in a day. Not easy or fun but easier and more fun than landing back in the hospital and dehydration can do that in a heartbeat. Like bbdoodle said, sip, sip, sip, sip, sip...

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
