I treated numerous heat exhaustion and sunburn patients this weekend.... PLEASE KEEP UP YOUR FLUID INTAKE. How to calculate: Take your body weight in pounds and divide by 2. This gives you the number of ounces of water you need to drink on a regular day.Increase by 2 more glasses (8 ounces each) for exercise, and 2 more for this kind of heat. If you are out golfing, or active outdoors, drink 2 cups before you leave the house; and carry a refill for along your way. Symptoms of heat stroke include headache, dry mouth, nausea. The diagnosis is supported by the person having a rosy pink, hot to touch complexion or even blisters... ;-)
