Fever and Chills are common symptoms of severe dehydration and if you do have a fever it can worsen the dehydration.

If your dehydration is severe you really should go to the emergency room for treatment.

When you're dehydrated you may feel fatigued, have an increased thirst or sticky and dry mouth.

Confusion, anger, dry eyes, blurred vision, lack of sweat, muscle cramps, dark urine, being disoriented or having a headache are all signs that you may be dehydrated.

To avoid dehydration don't wait until you're thirsty before drinking anything.

Always drink water, tea or something else to hydrate you even when you're not feeling thirsty.

Being dehydrated can put you in the hospital or in some severe cases even kill you so don't take dehydration lightly.
