Question

I have been drinking so much water to prepare for this procedure. I failed the hydration test. 36.8 and the minimum is 40. So disappointed. I don' t know how to get more in. I go to the bathroom all the time. Any suggestions?

Grace Liu, MD · Answer

Hi,I know it is disappointing to not be able to do Vanquish because of hydration.  We have had to turn away some patients because we couldn't get an adequate hydration level.  Some suggestions to improve hydration are to cut out anything that makes you urinate more such as caffeine or diet pills.  Another suggestion is to drink electrolyte water such as Gatorade or Propel water.  The amount of hydration we recommend is a gallon of water the day before, day of, and day after each treatment.Warmly,Dr. Liu
