A member asked:

If you're dehydrated, how long will it take for you to become fullly hydrated again?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: On amount of water deficit, how much you drink, and how much you continue to loose. In some cases, it might take 3 - 5 days for full rehydration.

A member asked:

Had a CBC and my platelet count was 253 (normal is 140-400). Dr said hard to find vein so maybe I was a little dehydrated. Does dehydration falsely raise platelet count by a lot? If so, how much? What would my platelet # be if I was better hydrated?
