I don't necessarily remember to drink as much water as I should, either. I tell
my personal attendants to offer it to me often and I'll drink just because.
Works for me. Jeff

Hi All,
I have the problem I don't get thirsty, and with the brain injury, I'm
not always good about remembering to drink water.
I knew dehydration could cause low blood pressure, but never knew it
could cause high blood pressure. So now I know why my blood pressure has
been so high (not AD high), but much higher than it has ever been before.
With the heat and humidity where I live, it's very easy to get
dehydrated, even in an air-conditioned house.
Hope all of you are doing well.
Carolyn
