no increase urination ( no increase in water intake )means not polydipsia
Urinary concentration is 40-220 for 24h so 124 is normal . SIADH is euvolemic hypo Na with urine inappropriately concentrated and also see Na here is at max normal (SIADH causes - Li , SSRI, hypoTh, adrenal insuffic., Carbamazepine)
nobody here is paying attention to glycemic 175 the only abnormal lab present
they distract us by saying schizo and we think polydipsia or SIADH without checking in details .

as i don't see any other lab abnormality ( and i don't have it at my wrong answers )
