        when a person is seriously dehydrated, it will be a dangerous situation! I would never like to be in that situation. Although, if you are mildly dehydrated, you can get headaches, muscle cramps, fever and chills. You may also get a sudden craving for sweets (as the body finds difficult to produce enough glycogen).
