ok this is gonna sound pretty weird...but for the past three days i've been craving nothing but milk. all day. i just got over a stomach flu or bug or something last week. i was throwing up and all that jazz for about two days. after i got over that...all i've wanted was milk.
i drank (drunk? whats the past participle of drink?) at least 4 gallons in three days. probably more than that. my pee's all cloudy because of it. i really have never had that much milk in such a short period of time before. usually i just have it with cereal and thats it. now i'm CRAVING it. i get grouchy if i can't have it. i walk around at school and work with water bottles full of it.
what could be wrong with me? IS there actually anything wrong with me? should i make an appointment? do you think this has anything to do with the flu i had?
thanks!

With the milk itself, I wouldn't worry so much... Not sure what could cause the craving for SO much, but it's possiable when you were sick that you expelled nutrients that milk has, though not sure why calcium would be the culprit... I could see it as your body trying to line your throat as you probably tore it up bad when you were getting sick...
As for your urine, I'd go to the doctor for that one. I've never heard of milk staying in the system so much that it causes it to turn cloudy. It really shouldn't be that color at all... You probably have some sort of invection of some sort still, which needs medication...
Note: I know a guy who regularly drank at least a gallon of milk at lunch alone, and probably had 2-3 a day, and I dont' remember him ever saying he had this problem
So, yeah... go to the doctor...

Is there a possibility you could be pregnant. Sometimes this can cause the sickness you described and can cause deficincies in which can cause these kinds of cravings. You urine should not be cloudy though regardless. If uit is a possibility I would suggest investing in a pregnancy test or better yet make an appointment with a doctor. You should get it checked regardless of if you are or aren't pregnant.

well cloudy pee is weird, also dont walk around with it in bottles because it will get funky. I had a milk craving for like a week once but not like you have described. maybe it would be best to call a doc.

you know your taste buds change every 7 years, maybe the flu triggered a change and you are now in love with milk. nothing is wrong with you, just try and cut back to much milk isnt good, go with water and juice.
if you still have a craving for milk quit buying gallons of it and just go buy a cow...it will cost less in the end.

Check with your doctor. You do not need milk in any form. Milk is excellent for baby cows. You body needs something and you need to find out what it is...and it is not milk. Check out www.notmilk.com. You will be surprised how many major diseases are related to dairy products.
Fruits and veggies, no animal products, lots of water.
Lots of luck

Are you sure your craving milk? or is it that you want something fatty?
i get that every now and then. i usually eat avocado or walnuts or something with olive oil, instead of milk though... the fat isnt saturated which is better for you and it seems to satisfy better : )
Good Luck : )

are you prego? I can not think of any other reason why you woulod be craving this. Sometimes though I want some hot coco but never just plain milk. Its probally nothing. Would not worry.

Oddly, I do the same thing when I eat too much sodium, my sister too. I believe theres something about a balance between the two.
