A member asked:
I took two laxatives two days ago and am feeling dizzy upon standing. i feel shaky like i may lose my balance.could i be dehydrated?

Depends: If you had a lot of diarrhea with the laxatives, then use. Drink plenty of fluids and try to not move around too much until you begin to feel better.
