Certainly possible: How long has this been going on? Do you take any meds? Do you drink a lot of fluids? These are questions that your doctor will ask you on your first visit. Without answers to these questions, really difficult to tell what is wrong. But you need blood test now to make sure you don't have any acute electrolyte abnormality. This can cause heart rhythm problems, so get to a doctor asap.
