So... I was an idiot, drank on vacation AND got anxious on a plane and had a few drinks. So, I panicked and read somebody's way of "flushing" their body. Not sure how, or why, someone would ever do this more than once because I can assure you I will abstain from alcohol, altogether now.
The "system" was as follows:
One whole pot of coffee, followed by one whole pot of tea
Take Midol (diuretic to assist pee)
Continuous, and rigorous water intake until two hours before test
Emergen- C, don't pee after this step until test
I drank two vente black coffees, several glasses of water, took Midol... and then went to the hospital, where my potassium levels were so low, I could've caused severe nerve damage. I must've peed about 30 times.
I'm just wondering... is there any chance that worked? Or did I almost kill myself for nothing else but my own stupidity?
