[ghost at the gate]

i also have a tendency to get dehydrated & never feel thirsty, i grew up in a household where we drank coffee, pop or alcohol & never formed a habit of drinking water until only in the last few years, it took time for it to become a habit. before that i just got dehydration sick over & over to the point of throwing up & leg cramps & had iv fluids at the er, the whole thing. the one thing that really helped me was strawberry gatorade, which i found i really liked over lots of ice (more h20) so that got me past the worst of it for awhile.. hope this helps ~
