A real honest question @rahaeli.bsky.social . I am on high dose steroids, currently 30mg daily down from 60mg. You really do know more than my PC. I'm at a job I sweat through my shirt within 2 hours. Should I look into hydration salts? I've drank 77oz 3x this week.

Generally steroids are going to increase fluid retention even if you're sweating and changes how your body processes salt, so you're going to want to stick with plain water and get regular metabolic panels to see how you're doing on sodium and potassium levels

I usually drink water with lemon added. I think my potassium has been low because I get cramps in my hands but after eating a couple of bananas they stop. Thank you for the info, I really appreciate it.
