I don't know what's going on with me. I've been extremely thirsty and no matter how much water I drink i'm still thirsty afterwords. This is how much water I drink....

*MORNING(BEFORE BREAKFAST): 2 or 3 cups of 18oz cups to 1 liter of water.
*MORNING(AFTER BREAKFAST):2-3 20oz bottles to 1 1/2 litter of water.
*DURING LUNCH: 1-2 20oz bottles of water.
*AFTER LUNCH:2-4 18oz of water
* WITH/AFTER MY SNACK: 2-3 18oz of water
*BEFORE DINNER: 1-2 18oz of water
*AFTER DINNER: 1-2 18oz of water
* BEFORE SNACK: 1-2 18oz of water
*AFTER SNACK: 1-2 18oz of water.

I don't even eat salty food. and each time I drink these amounts i'm still thirsty. I'm 16years old, 5ft 5inches tall and 111lbs.

***THE DOCTORS ALREADY TESTED ME FOR DIABETES BUT THEY SAID I'M JUST EXTRA THIRSTY AND THEY JUST LEFT IT AT THAT*** I'm just worried I guess.

Have another doctor check for diabetes.

It sounds like you should be tested for diabetes again. This time I would go to a different doctor. You're drinking a lot of water and I wouldn't take being extra thirsty as a final diagnosis.
You might want to be tested for some other things too. And some medications can make you extremely thirsty. So if you're taking any meds. that could be the problem.
I recommend talking to you mom or dad about going to see another doctor just to make sure you're in good health. Better safe than sorry.
Take care.

R u athletic? You dont drink way too much water, a lot is healthy. U do drink more than is normal, but thats ok. its better to be really hydrated than dehydrated. if ur still concerned, go back in a few months & get anouther check up OR get a second opinion. it cant hurt, and ur health is the most important thing u have.

I think you are 100% healthy, WATER will never hurt your body!!! imagine if that was alcochol LOL
If you say you eat a lot whcih I don't think so I imagine you need extra calories, so the more water you drink the better , to lose the extra fat, DO NOT WORRY you are perfectly fine!

good luck!

Are you feeling OK? (This is important on how you feel). Are you urinating a lot? Do you live in a hot area? Do you exercise a lot? You can always see another Doctor for another opinion if you are not feeling good or to just to make sure you are OK. Good luck.
