Dear Diary: It Is Hard For Me To Control Fluid Intake With A Hot Weather

It is hot and dry now and I am currently battling with thirst. Fortunately my pain medication had kicked in and I was able to walk in the kitchen to get myself a very cold water from the freezer. Nothing is more rewarding than to quench your thirst with a burden of a bitter taste in my mouth.

And so after reaching my room I just took in the life-giving water which would definitely not only give me my relief but a misery afterwards as it will make me breathless and I hope not. So now I would wish to perspire more because it helps me lose water from my body and thus would help me breathe in turn.

But being breathless will be not that expedited because of this hot weather. It makes me feel thirsty all the time. Now I will just avoid foods that will make me thirsty and I do avoid them all the time and I just prefer real foods that will give me sustenance and good nutrition.

Thirst is one thing that we cannot control so we just have to drink in order to balance out what is not balanced in our bodies like the water and salt imbalance in my system. Because my food would contain sodium and it makes me go thirsty especially with our kind of food here which is always basically rice with viand and the viand would contain salt and it is something I have to keep in mind so that I would be feeling a lot better between dialysis.
