jimp,

A geordie friend of mine said, “It’s like an angel crying on me tongue!”

beSyl,

Hydrohomies needs to move to lemmy!

son_named_bort,

That cat has had too much catnip.

UnknownQuantity,

I remember being sick, when swallowing and even talking caused an extreme pain, and fantasising about drowning, I’d shower the inside of my mouth just to wash away the foul feeling of dryness.

DrRatso,

If this happens often, get yourself checked out for diabetes.

Waking up at night to drink or pee are one of the most common symptoms.

eestileib,

Sleep apnea as well.

And Bioténe mouthwash is the BEST when you wake up dry.

mycatiskai,

Xylimelts are great for keeping your mouth from drying out in the first place. They have a natural adhesive on one side to stick in your cheek and the xylitol dissolves through the night stimulating your saliva production.

I have sleep apnea and use them daily to keep my mouth from drying out with the small amount of air as it escapes my mouth

kameecoding,

could be other things, i breathe through my mouth when sleeping and it’s like a desert when I wake up.

you also just naturally dehydrate during the evening

DrRatso,

It could be, for sure, but nevertheless should be checked out. The meme specifically says 4AM, if you wake up dry in rhe morning its less worrisome, waking up at night to drink is more concerning.

reagansrottencorpse,

Would a dr know I have it if I’ve been seen recently?

I get up to pee like 2-3 times a night. I also keep water next to my bed.

DrRatso,

If you raised the issue, hopefully they considered it, but they can’t see it on a routine visit. The two main ways we check for it would be:

  • an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), where you get serial blood sugar measurements for two hours - before and after drinking a specific amount of glucose on an empty stomach in the morning.
  • A blood test called HbA1c which correlates to your average blood sugar over the last 3 months.
reagansrottencorpse,

I didn’t mention it. Thank you for taking the time to answer. TIL I might have diabetes from a meme

dontcarebear,

The peeing part can also be gout (personal confirmation).

What you should do if you drink/pee often at night is to get tested, because it could be a lot of things.

DrRatso,

Yea, I point to diabetes primarily because unchecked it is probably the most debilitating cause.

dontcarebear,

Mmm, fair point.

RaivoKulli,

It’s just extremely common in general. But I thought this meme was about having a hangover. Slurping shit down straight from the tap like an animal because you didn’t drink water before going to bed.

mustardman,

Lemmy memes always leave me feeling attacked from how accurate they are lmao.

WTF don’t drink tap water or you’d get butt worms!!

Not everyone lives in a swamp that uses unfiltered water

lowleveldata,

better safe than butt worms

Sheeple,
@Sheeple@lemmy.world avatar

My dude you ever heard of cities with good water treatment plants?

That’s like “better safe than butt worms” when you are offered a steak from a 5 star restaurant

lowleveldata,

No, it’s not. The steak is already cooked. Boil your water before drinking it.

Sheeple,
@Sheeple@lemmy.world avatar

Yes it is. That’s water treatment plants are for 🤡

ThatWeirdGuy1001,
@ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world avatar

Now tbf those are the same places that say there’s “safe” levels of toxic chemicals in your water

lowleveldata,

The distance between a restaurant’s kitchen and my table is so short that the chance of contemplation is pretty slim. I guess you can say it’s the same if you live beside the water treatment plant.

Jmdatcs,

If they’re from a “boil your water” kind of place, they also probably order steak well done, so same thing.

I always boil it before drinking, but most people I know don’t bother with that

This comment was brought to you by Nestlé

lowleveldata,

I’m saying you should boil it first

RaivoKulli,

Brought to you by Big Kettle!!

lowleveldata,

I like how I’m offering generally good advice and you guys just treat it like a conspiracy

RaivoKulli,

Nice try, Big Kettle SHILL!

hungryphrog,

Not all countries have shitty tap water.

staticblanket,

Yeah! Drink the same water but packaged in plastic waste!

lowleveldata,

I’m saying you should boil it first

el_bhm,

The bottle?

hungryphrog,

Fun fact: there are other countries than the USA!

lowleveldata,

er, why did you assume I’m in USA?

hungryphrog,

Because USA has shitty tap water, and when someone acts like their country is the whole world (which you did by assuming that OP also has shitty tap water), they’re almost always an American.

lowleveldata,

That’s racist. But I’m not an American so I don’t care.

mofongo,

Every time when eating pizza
