I am miserable, tired, and feel really ill. I expect it is something I ate or didn't eat, but I've tried eating some cheese and eating some sugary things and I'm still watering excessively from the mouth and feeling like my head is in a vise. I think I am probably missing salt but when I try to eat cheese (which is my obvious source of immediate salty goodness) I feel like I'm going to throw up.

Also I am irritated that Nicholas said he'd be home in the evening and isn't home yet. He has phoned me and it's just me being intolerant, and if I didn't feel too ill to go to sleep (if I lie down and close my eyes I really feel like I'm going to die) then I wouldn't mind, but I could do with someone to go 'wah, I feel really ill' at and then he would say 'you are a stupid Chessypig and vastly overreacting, it's probably foo, for goodness sake eat supper and drink some water and stop whining' and everything would be okay.

Wah.

I go for crisps or olives when I need salt.

That said, I don't get a watering mouth when I'm short of it.

You can also just pour out some salt onto your palm and take a couple of licks, I do that sometimes if I am ravenous for salt, instead of eating 6 packs of crisps for it.
Marmite is also good, but you may dislike marmite.
And yeah, is watering mouth a no-salt symptom? I've found craving salt (duh) and painful muscle cramps as your other comments say are much more usual.

The only real symptom I get that I need salt is muscle cramps. You sure that's what it is?

If it gets worse, or goes on for much longer, then Go To The Doctors. Or I shall be Stern at you. ;-P

Mostly I haven't been eating very well lately and failed to eat tea.

Some water and some crisps has fixed the immediate feeling like death.

"failed to eat tea."

That would be because it's a liquid, you drink those. ;-)

Smart Arsery aside, good to know your feeling better. :-)

Insert some good natured berating for not looking after yourself better here. ;-P
