I got pretty bad heat stroke once while running in Texas. Was in the military, and due to a stupid miscommunication was told I was not allowed to drink water.
Lap or two later and I started having symptoms I’d never experienced before.
I can 100% believe that my look and behavior could have been mistaken for drug use.
I had stopped sweating, looked pale and disoriented, I’m sure I was not speaking clearly. My friend grabbed me and dragged me to a water fountain.
Once I had time to recover, get some A/C, and rehydrate, I was pretty much fine, though I remember having one hell of a headache like a hangover.
3 times in my life I can tell you that I had heat exhaustion. One time I thought I was going to have to go to the hospital. It is the absolute worse feeling I’ve ever experienced
Yeah, you start acting this way because your brain literally starts to boil in your skull. Over a certain temperature, your sweat glands start dying and so your body has no other effective ways to shed heat from your core.
Well There’s Your Problem just had a very horrifying episode about heatstroke - they had a physical therapist on to talk about the Jordan McNair heatstroke case in 2018 at U Maryland.
