Reply to comment by gynoceros in ELI5: why do our bodies randomly act like we haven’t had water in days and that we need to chug a bunch randomly? by Serratedlily

I kind of get what you’re saying - but there are lots of reasons OP could be having these symptoms. Why would you go to the ER when you can go to a 24hr pharmacy and buy a 40 dollar glucose meter before you waste hours and thousands of dollars?

I’m in Canada. It would be absolutely free for me to go to the ER. I would still do a quick sanity check before going for a reason like this.
