I heard 1 of my caller said that his daughter is diapetic and she said something about her daughter not to be dehydrated. I tried searching this in the internet an I came back with the result correcting me that it should be diabetic. Help please!

more than likely she said her daughter was a "diabetic" dehydration is a very common condition suffered by diabetics when they are sick or if thier blood glusoce levels are very high

There is no such word as diapetic in any medical dictionary. You are probably confusing it with diabetic.

either that word is 'diabetic' or 'diaphoretic'. 'diaphoretic' means sweating. so when someone is diaphoretic, they are sweating profusely. more than likely, the person you were talking to meant to say the word 'diabetic.'
