It doesn't matter what time you drink, your body cells store water so unless its super hot or you're working out I don't think you'd get dehydrated.

What does the pain feel like?
I woke up with this pain in my thigh like someone had just punched me really hard. It scared me as it didn't feel like the ususl aches n pains I get .
It did go away though :)

I think the leg pain is just random n nothing to do with the rash, but I know how easy it is to get nervous when things seem to be related.

I get back pain a lot, it could be muscular. If it was your kidneys surely you'd be sick with a fever or something.
If the pains very bad maybe ask your doctor?

Have you seen a Doctor about all this and if not why not?

If you are currently in so much pain and stress I suggest you call your Doctors out of hours service.

Emma,

By the way you keep updating this thread it is obviously causing you a lot of stress. I really think that being the case you need to ring your Doctor's out of hours service now, even if only for some peace of mind, so you can rest tonight. That is what they are there for.

Does not matter what I think and it does not matter if it turns out you are ill or just worrying. RING THEM NOW.

I disagree about ringing them now.

Emma gets all sorts of pains all the time and they will be ok by the morning I expect.

You are scaring her telling her that

Hi Emma, I always get a bit scared to post on your posts because I don't want to worry you, even if what I say would be really positive or whatever! I see in you myself when I had health anxiety - if you really really thought there was something wrong, you would be straight to the doctors/hospital - you seem to say "should I go to the doctors, I'm so worried" and then when someone suggests that you go, you seem to be able to rationalise why you shouldn't - i.e. the back pain isn't that bad etc. Does this make sense? Basically I think you know deep down that this is just anxiety/normal aches and pains (back pain could be anything, standing up too much/sitting down too much/sleeping funny etc) but you still have all that anxiety on top which makes you worry. I know how hard it is, but if you were really ill you would know about it - and those around you will know it. I know you've mentioned before that your parents find it hard to deal with your HA, but trust me, if you really needed medical help, they would probably be the ones to rush you down there. I hope this helps a bit.

So glad it helped, I hate seeing you suffering so much in your posts, HA is such a terrible thing to live with and so often hard for others to understand at all. My poor dad having to take me to the doctors because I thought I had a blood clot in my elbow (apparently this is impossible!). I don't have any advice for getting better - I just did - but I attribute it in some ways to just plodding on day to day and not giving up on my dreams (managed to get through A levels, uni, a masters degree and now doing a PhD). Easier said than done but even plodding is better than standing still! Feel free to PM me if you need to :flowers:
