Has anyone had to go to the ER with dehydration?

Question

I’ve had morning sickness the majority of the time, it’s nothing new for me. But I may have a stomach bug and have had diarrhea and vomiting for two full days. I haven’t been able to eat or drink anything. I’m going to call my OB in the morning to see if they think I should go to the ER. I feel like I’d feel better if I could get some IV fluids just to “catch up”. Curious if anyone has gone to the ER and if they actually did anything for you?

Answer

I was in the same boat two weeks ago. Popsicles were a life saver! I was able to keep them down for the most part but the night of day 2 and by the morning of day 3 I was able to keep fluids down and start eating bland foods by the evening. Had I still not kept anything down on day 3 I was going to go to the hospital for fluids because I was so dehydrated.

Answer

I just got over the stomach flu. It was horrible the more dehydrated I got the worse I felt. I couldn't keep any water down. So I tried some coconut water just sipped on it and it helped so much and gave me no issues. I was close to going to the hospital to get an iv I was so dehydrated

Yes, got fluids and stronger nausea medicine. It was life saving. Hope you feel better

Answer

I caught norovirus and was extremely dehydrated. Lost ten pounds and am 12 weeks now. I didn’t go to ER bc there was nothing they could do

Answer

Yes at least three times due to severe vomiting! I took the whole bag every time. I think once I took 2.

Answer

Yes I was in the ER for severe dehydration, which affected my blood pressure and heart rate and an anxiety attack (unrelated). I took a full drip and an entire bag of fluids and they wanted to give me more but I opted for hydrating at home.... my blood pressure was scary low but I had a high heart rate so it slowing down was imperative to staying hydrated. I absolutely think you need to go in especially if you’re afraid you’re dehydrated but also grab Powerade or Gatorade or pedialyte. Dehydration is no joke and they take it very seriously. You should be drinking 64+ fl a day.
