I had what you have. I was always thirsty and peeing all the time. It's called Insipidus Diabetes. It's a result of your hormones not putting out enough. You need to see a encrondine doctor and she can run some blood work for you. Go to a hospital ask for a financial counsler and they will help you since you don't have insurance. The hospitals pay out so much per year as they write things off to help others in need of medical help. Then when you run these tests there are company's that will pay for your medication at no charge as they are doing it for me as I have no insurance. You can email me at mytwodogs60463@yahoo.com if you need more help.

Do you find you are often going to the toilet as well? What's your diet like. I'm not a doctor, but one thing that comes to mind is diabetes.... thirst is one of the symptoms. Is there no where you cannot get a free check (being from the UK, I don't know how your health system works)? To be cautious you could cut your sugar intake and see if you notice any difference. Keep drinking water, and get it checked.

Going to the Dr.s should be your first resort. If it is something serious or not you'll know right away, other than waiting, wondering, asking and trying to figure it out for yourself. If it is something serious you may be causing more damage to yourself by prolonging your Dr.s visit. Make an appointment now, because it sounds like a diabetes problem. Stop wondering and find out now.

When I was diagnosted with diabetes I had similar symptoms my mom woulud buy use sodas and drinks and I would take them to my room to drink the whole thing I always had to pee and I always was thirsty for some thing to drink I was diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes occur when immune cells kill the germ in your body that produce insulin.

Besides diabetes get checked for Diabetes insipidous. This has nothing to do with sugar but with your kidneys not working correctly.
Keep us updated.
Good luck.

Could be diabetes. Or you are eating foods with too much salt/sodium. Find a way to get your blood sugar checked.
