Did you hit the weigh in wrong? You should go to the ED to get evaluated and have your blood pressure monitored and a full heart work up and labs hun.

I hope you feel better soon. My son whom is in college states a stomach bug is going around. He had it this past weekend.

I agree with Jc. Seems rather dangerous to have that much fluid.

You've been sick over a week, time to call the doc. How's your mom doing? I looked back and saw she went to ER a couple of days ago. Prayers for you. Get better. Hoping that's a typo.

My mom's been in the hospital for 3 days now. They run so many tests, even more tests scheduled for tommorrow. Her blood pressures running low & temp high 101-103. Today was the first day she's been able to hold down solid foods. Doctors are treating her for sepsis. But still looking for the cause. Dads been staying at hospital with mom, & I've been pet sitting my moms 4 fur babies.

Once mom's home & able bodied, if I'm still sick I'll deal with it. Mom first. My immune system sucks & I'm always sick like 2-3x longer then anybody else. I already have stomach issues , so crap like this hits me hard . As for the water weight I've been known to put on up to 100 lbs in a day or two. Started taking water pills again. Cant wait to sleep in my own bed. I know good things come to those that wait. Thank you guys for your cares, prayers, & support.

Well being there for your parents is huge and loving. You have to love yourself when it matters. I have never heard of a 100 lb fluid gain in a shot that period of time in my medical career , but I also know that I can easily pack on weight as a sweller and my heart and lungs have to work a little harder due to illness. I also have autoimmune diseases. The weight for me really packs on with steroids. You need to go to the hospital. And do you log? No better time than to take care of yourself like the present. I know I put myself to the side since I had my first child. Ready or not, life is going to throw some blows. I have been there and it’s apart of the reason I am here, between pregnancies, anxiety which kept me from a gym membership and FB meat heads, life in general with PTSD. But there comes a time when you’re at your wits end and need to make a change. Yea, all these add up, but you can let it define and ruin you, or you can make a change. Be the change for yourself and be 💯 honest with yourself in what you’re doing and consuming daily and see your PCP and get to ED if you’re that bad💕
