can a regular person buy IV bags?

by regular, i mean non-medical person..

i almost messed up a perfectly good 4-day weekend. on friday, i got up (not so early), gulped coffee, hopped on my bike and rode around. then visited friends on a trackday. did a session in a very hot, and fast vette.

i thought it was motion sickness. i was hot and queasy, and my head hurt. i went home. it was 100 degrees at my home. i went to my MIL, she had the AC cranked. i laided down and started to sip water. i noted that i had not peed all day. oh-o! it took a day and a half to feel better! i think i drank several gallons of water, and blended watermelon juice.

i kept thinking, an IV bag would speed things along. i rode yesterday right before the sun went down. cooler temps, and i kept sucking on my camelback full of iced water. it was nice by comparison. lesson learned.

not so sure how i would administer IV on myself. i guess beg one of my nursing friends.
