Question: I became dehydrated Monday evening after working in the hot afternoon. I suddenly became extremely dizzy, to the extent that I had to hold onto things to keep from falling down. This was accompanied by profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting. After managing to get to my phone and googling symptoms, I managed to figure out that it was dehydration and probably heat exhaustion. Upon stumbling to a water cooler that was on the premises, falling once, the symptoms slowly started to subside and after about 2 hours I was able to walk OK and felt almost normal. I still had a mild headache and residual spacey feeling. I also noticed that I felt weaker over the next 2 days but I am feeling stronger now. My question is my wife and I are planning to camp in the smokies this weekend and I am wondering if it is safe to do so. I don't want to be in an isolated area like that if there is a good possibility of a relapse. For your information, I am 61, overweight but in relatively good shape considering. Blood pressure, sugar readings, cholesterol and heart rate etc have always been very good.
