I was 168.2 yesterday and I went to the ER and they gave me fluids through an IV for over an hour. Then I had litacaine while getting a cat scan done and then some pain meds all through the IV. I had a big dinner last night but I didn't eat at the hospital or much during the day.
I weighed myself a few minutes ago and I was 174. Is all or most of that from the IV fluids? Thats a lot to gain overnight. __________________ Ridin' with Biden |

Yes !! The sodium in those fluids alone will make you retain water. Fluid weighs more than its equivalent non fluid thing relatively speaking. Carry a 20lb baby and a 20lb bag of water and see the difference. It’s Temporary and will be peed out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk __________________ "I carried a watermelon?"
