Water intoxification: You maybe developing water intoxication syndrome. In this syndrome, you can dilute your electolytes which can lead to hyponatremia and hypochloremia. This could lead to headaches, seizures and possible death. I would have you physician order a complete metabolic profile and evaluate your electrolyte balance or imbalance.
