Anything that injures your brain can affect your ability to remember stuff. Sorry, anon. :(

I had heatstroke and suffered for a few years whenever I got hot or dehydrated. I'm still careful about the heat.

some advice:

A small amount of salt in your water can make it more usable to your cells. Or perhaps mineral water, etc.

Consider drinking a lot of water and gaterade (or coconut water) every single day (coconut water is more natural than gaterade and works well for some people).

Even if you "shouldn't" need so much water. Some people do great on a few glasses a day. Some people feel OK even when they're dehydrated. Not you. You'll likely be sensitive for a long, long time. It's worth it to chug the water / liquids if it helps you survive and not suffer so much.

Keep an eye on your pee. You should pee frequently and if it's bright yellow, even if you feel OK, DRINK. If people get tired of you going to the bathroom, too damn bad. It's YOUR health!

Maybe your doctor can offer more helpful things. I never got much medical help about this and sort of had to learn what worked for me.

There is the advice you didn't ask for. Best of luck.

DA

This soo very very much.
If your pee is too yellow, drink.
If water seems boring or burdensome, ask a doctor or nurse practitioner what you should be drinking and follow that advice religiously.
Ask and ask again if your body processes minerals and salts properly. Do not stop until you get a good answer that you can understand and use to your advantage.
Wear a damn hat unless it makes your problems worse. If you don't know what kinds of headgear keeps your head cool, ask around.

You can find pee color charts on the internet! Hang them over the toilets at work!

To add to this, a lot of people don't realize how much more water you need when it's hot outside. Just because you aren't drenched in sweat doesn't mean you aren't losing water, so you really need to be constantly hydrating to keep up with that loss.
