Could It Be Dehydration If Having Vomiting, Dizziness, Sweating After Being Under An Electric Blanket?
Hi, earlier my daughter woke up, vomited once, and got quite dizzy. It was scary because she didn't seem like herself at all, almost zombie like. She was sweaty a little, but had been under an electric blanket for about 12 hours. Is this dehydration? She seemed quite normal once we got some tea and juice into her.

Hi, I am not sure but let me put a theory. Dehydration is uncommon in closed areas where perspiration is minimum. She probably had breathed pooled up carbon dioxide in a closed environment which has resulted in above symptoms. Keep a watch over her for few days for any other clue. Hope this helps.
