Starting the water challenge (1 gallon a day) in 4 hours...midnight?
Well, I am a night shifter so nights are my days and by 6 am I will have drank at least half of the demand!
As a nurse, and for those of you who do not know your cardiac status, if you see any leg swelling while doing this, or find yourself having increased breathing difficulty, or you take Lasix or other diuretic...S T O P drinking the water and contact your doctor. This much water could cause congestive heart failure. Sometimes we do not know we are having a problem until we have it.
Also, a person can become toxic from too much water. Just saying.

Hope you have a good shift. Trust you can take care of yourself, even as you care for your patients. :)
