"Drink plenty of liquids and rest" - how ridiculous is this for advice?

[KitchenWitch]

If I drink the extra liquids, I will not get much rest because I will be running to the bathroom all the time.

water cleanses your system. with the summertime months coming up, always remember: HYDRATION HYDRATION HYDRATION!

[KitchenWitch]

5. And you pay good money for this advice too!

You'd think they could tell you something a little more original than that!

:eyes:

[KitchenWitch]

7. No shit!

[LSK]

12. well, dont get sick in the 1st place

:P

[KitchenWitch]

[SoxFan]

17. Drink plenty of solids!

:yoiks:

[KitchenWitch]

19. ROFL

:spray:

[SoxFan]

29. On a serious note

Think about taking a potassium supplement. I've found that they can help get fluids into the system more efficiently.

[KitchenWitch]

30. Hmm, never heard that before

Thanks!

18. Well just get in the bath tub.

Rest there. Then you can pee and sleep at the same time.

[KitchenWitch]

20. ewwwww!

[texas1928]

22. Well you wanted advice that works.

that works. it ain't gross, unless you let the water to pee ratio get out of whack.

[ThomCat]

23. It would be slightly more restful than drinking lots of liquids

while working your ass off.

I hope you feel better soon and get your voice back.

[KitchenWitch]

24. Me too!

My husband probably would like my voice to stay gone, however!

:rofl:

[AlCzervik]

25. did they give you the good cough medicine?

i had pneumonia a few years ago nd i was coughing so much i was keeping everyone up at night so the Doctor gave me the stuff with codeine in it---best sleep ever.

[KitchenWitch]

27. Yes, and I am supposed to be on it round the clock

but I can't because I have to drive my daughter to school, so I get to take it after I get her home.

[bigwillq]

26. Kitchy...feel better.

:hug: :hug: :hug:

You could put a bed pan in your room so you won't use all your energy running to the potty! ;) :P

:hug:

[KitchenWitch]

28. I actually own a commode...

but I only use that when I have to use the wheelchair.

[bertha katzenengel]

31. Pretty lame because how does one drink rest?

ba-dum pum.

:hug:

[NMDemDist2]

32. if that's the problem, maybe they should check out your bladder too

:evilgrin:

or you need to do more Kegels :hide:



edit for dumbass spelling

[KitchenWitch]

37. LOL

I will get right on the kegels!

:rofl:

[Beaverhausen]

38. Oh no! Not pneumonia!

You have my sympathies. I had it a few years ago. It took me months to be able to breathe normally.

get as much rest as you can. If you can run a humidifier try and do that...you have to keep hydrated.

Big :hug: and lots of love and light to you for quick healing.

[tandot]

39. Drink plenty of liquids? I wouldn't have a problem with beer, wine, vodka...

... :evilgrin:

I am sending good vibes to you and hope that you'll feel better soon. :hi:
