Hello. This is my first time posting. I am currently a nursing student and my wife just came to me with some issues and I hope I can get some advice or guidance on.

She isn't feeling good and she thinks she has been drinking too much water. She is feeling lightheaded, weak (she is telling sometimes her legs feel like they might give out, but they never do).

she doesn't have any nausea and hasn't been vomiting

her urine is yellow-clear.

She also is telling me that she doesn't feel like she is getting worse, but is slightly concerned.

I haven't dealt with anything like this, so I'm hoping that someone may be able to point me in the right direction. She is trying to decide if she needs to go to the hospital or not.

Thank you in advance.

this isn't a place for medical advice, she should see her doctor.

We are not permitted to give medial advice on this site. And even MDs, in person, wouldn't be able to tell you what's going on from that information alone.

Please pass on well-wishes to your wife and encourage her to see her health care provider for assessment and diagnostic testing.

The above posters are correct, in that no one here, per the Terms of Service, may offer medical advice.

It would be best for your wife to make an appointment with her primary MD or NP, and proceed as directed by the person who is able to examine her and follow her progress.

We wish your wife well, hope she feels better.

Closing this now.
