OHSS: Is Powerade ok?

AuburnBride06

I've been drinking Gatorade but now I'm out and I think the closest store only has powerade. Is that ok?

It has a bit less sodium but I think it is fine. ?I drank it with OHSS.

Thanks ladies. I'm waiting on my nurse to call me back. I'm a little worried because I havent felt like this this early. The first cycle, I was really really sore, it hurt to walk, but not this soon.And I am having a throbbing pain in my left ovary. Crud.

be careful about drinking too much though... i thought the more i drank, the better b/c it would flush out fluid. i was wrong--after having my tummy drained my doc said to only drink enough i keep peeing, but not too much that it will cause more flluid/bloat.  so i went from like 3L of gatorade a day to sipping a little more than 1L thru the entire day. and ZERO water was my rule. they said salt every bite of food too. i went for super salty things like that rotisserie chicken, pretzels, stuff like that.  it's not a healthy diet but you need the salt for the fluid!

GL--OHSS sucks so i feel for you!!
