Just did, its about 101 (actually a little more but I don't trust digital therms)
I'm going to see a doc soonish
go to the Doc...your headache may still be hanging around from all the caffiene you had. I assume you are drinking no more now and your body could be going through caffiene withdrawl. Happens to me when I drink too much and then cut it back drastically.
Water Intoxication is a real thing so don't mess around. There have been several college kids who died from having to drink to much H20 through a hazing incident.

That being said, I am sure you are not at risk of drinking 10+ liters of water or doing excessive exercise right now!
take (better) care!

bad choice. Hyponatremia is the result as you already trashed your electrolyte balance, and then guzzled water after.
quite possible to drink yourself to death with plain water, especially if you are already dehydrated. be careful, and get help soon.
Yes, glad you are alright, but...
Why couldn't you get Gatorade? This was a serious situation, and would it have been hard to call a friend to pick you up a couple bottles?

Ya I did get some after I posted. I also tried some of that "concoction" posted but it wasn't good
I'm gonna live.
