Not to be graphic but I've had **D** (frequent bathroom runs) for the last 4 days. On Wednesday I took Levsin 3 tablets so it would stop, but Levsin makes you very tired and dehydrated. So Thursday I woke up with a headache. I drank a ginger ale, a sprite and one 24 oz bottle of water, barely ate anything, had some pretzels and some white rice for lunch so as to not upset my stomach again and be running to the bathroom. Didn't eat any dinner. Well I think I made it worse because I didn't replenish on thursday, I woke up today,with black deep circles under my eyes, my eyes felt like there was no moisture at all in them, nose was all dry and my head was pounding so hard you'd have thought I'd been out drinking all night. I know I'm severely dehydrated. I have drank a bottle of water and two bottles of gatorade so far and it's only 10 and the headache will just not go away, any other suggestions to getting rehydrated quicker so this headache will stop? I am miserable.

Hope you feel better soon.

Definitely call your doctor.
I'd also advise you to talk to your doctor....sounds like a reaction to me too. I also think Miranda made a good point about protein!

I'm going to second, third and fourth what everyone else said.

I'm a little late to recommend doctor visit...but I agree with you.
