99 mEq/L? That's as normal as it gets! This patient is probably just trying to figure out why their socks keep disappearing. Laundry day is the real medical emergency here.

Wait, is 99 mEq/L considered low? I thought normal was like, 95-105 or something. I need to brush up on my electrolyte knowledge, clearly.

That's a good point, we should look at the overall health of the patient.

Whew, good thing it's not super high! That would've been a real emergency. As long as it's just a little low, I'm sure the doc can fix that with some simple adjustments.

I'm glad it's not super high, that would've been scary.

But shouldn't we consider other factors before concluding it's normal?

I agree with Tracey, it's not too high or too low to require immediate treatment.

A chloride level of 99 mEq/L is definitely within the normal range. This patient is probably just dehydrated and needs some fluids. No need to panic.
