Chui pas normale!!

Allô!

Bon bon bon... Par où commencer..Ouf! Je vais vous raconter ma journée d'hier. J'avais un r-v en ORL à 8h15. J'arrive au CHUL à 7h45...Entre mon arrivée et le r-v. J'ai été au toilettes 9 fois. Et été à l'abreuvoir minimum 15 fois. J'ai TOUT le temps soif! Mais grand dieu que j'élimine. Je vais boire et 5 minute plus tard, c'est la course aux toilettes! Et ça PRESSE! Donc, je vais à mon r-v...entre coupé de courses au toilettes PENDANT (quelle honte!)...Là, après je me suis inquiété. "Merde, c'est peut-être le diabète!" Alors, je suis allée a la bibliothèque pour savoir qu'est-ce qui pouvait bien causer ces symptômes... Parce qu'en plus de ma soif insatiable... RIEZ-PAS mais ma langue est JAUNE! JAUNE!

VU que je trouvais pas d'explication, je suis allée à la clinique et on m'a dit que soit: ma rate, soit, mes reins, soit mon foie. ET la madame la clinique m'a dit que peut-être j'étais potomane.. Mais on s'est enlevé ça de l'idée vu que je remplace pas la nourriture par l'eau! Mais on s'est entendues sur le fait que j'ai pas faim, j'ai soif soif soif! C'est indescriptible comme soif!

J'espère que je suis pas en train de faire une pyélonéphrite moi-là!!
Bon je vous laisse-là-dessus, j'espère que quelqu'un pourra m'encourager ou qqch...
Merçi!
Petite-Fleur

Increased thirst; Polydipsia; Excessive thirst
Definition Return to top

Excessive thirst is an abnormal feeling of constantly needing to consume fluids.

Considerations Return to top

Drinking lots of water is usually healthy. However, the urge to drink excessively beyond a certain limit may reflect an underlying disease, either physical or emotional. Excessive thirst may be a symptom of high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) and can be an important clue in detecting diabetes.

Excessive thirst is a fairly common symptom and is often the reaction to fluid loss during exercise or intake of salty foods.

Common Causes Return to top

A recent salty or spicy meal
Excessive loss of water and salt (possibly due to water deprivation, profuse sweating, diarrhea, or vomiting)
Diabetes mellitus
Diabetes insipidus
Drugs such as anticholinergics, demeclocycline, diuretics, phenothiazines
Bleeding enough to cause a significant decrease in blood volume
Loss of body fluids from the bloodstream to the tissues due to:
Conditions such as severe infections (sepsis) or burns
Heart, liver, or kidney failure
Psychogenic polydipsia
Home Care Return to top

Because thirst is usually the body's signal to replace water loss, it is usually appropriate to drink plenty of liquids.

Compulsive thirst may indicate a psychological cause, which may mean psychological help is required.

For thirst caused by diabetes, follow prescribed therapy to properly control blood sugar levels.

Call your health care provider if Return to top

Excessive thirst is persistent and unexplained.
Thirst is accompanied by other unexplained symptoms such as blurry vision and fatigue.
You are passing more than 5 quarts of urine per day.
What to expect at your health care provider's office Return to top

The health care provider will obtain your medical history and perform a physical examination.

Medical history questions may include the following:

How long have you been aware of having increased thirst?
Is it consistent during the day?
Is it worse during the day?
Did it develop suddenly or slowly?
Has your intake of salty or spicy foods increased?
How much salt do you consume each day?
Have you changed your diet?
Have you noticed an increased appetite?
Have you noticed an unintentional weight gain?
Have you noticed an unintentional weight loss?
Has your activity level recently increased?
What other symptoms are occurring at the same time?
Has there been a recent burn or other injury?
Have you noticed an increased or decreased frequency of urination?
Have you noticed an increased or decreased amount of urine produced?
Have you noticed bleeding?
Have you noticed excessive sweating?
Is there swelling?
Is there a fever?
A psychological evaluation may be recommended if compulsive thirst of psychologic origin is suspected. Fluid intake and output will be closely monitored.

Diagnostic tests that may be performed include the following:

Urinalysis
CBC and blood differential
Serum calcium
Blood glucose level
Urine osmolality
Serum osmolality
Serum sodium

The typical symptoms of Type 1 diabetes include:

Increased thirst
Dry mouth
Frequent urination
Unexplained weight loss (even though you are eating and feel hungry)
Fatigue (weak, tired feeling)
Blurred vision
Numbness or tingling of the hands or feet
Loss of consciousness (rare)


Symptoms of Type 11 diabetes include:

The same as those listed above
Slow-healing sores or cuts
Itching skin (especially the groin or vaginal area)
Yeast infections
Recent weight gain.


In general one’s risk of contracting diabetes increases with age.



The major diagnostic test for diabetes is the glucose tolerance test. This can be either fasting or non-fasting.



Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) categorizes diabetes as xiao ke, sometimes translated as ‘inner wasting,’ or ‘wasting thirst disease.’ The common symptoms include profuse eating, profuse drinking, profuse urination as well as obesity, impotence, tingling numbness, sores and clear-eyed blindness

What Your Symptom Is Telling You
http://www.mothernature.com/Library/Bookshelf/Books/16/226.cfm

Thirst works something like your car's temperature light: It goes on when fluids are low.

Those fluids can get low from excessive sweating, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, hot flashes, sunburn or dieting. Even sitting for hours in the dry cabin of an airplane can cost you a pint or more of water because of evaporation from your skin and breath. Diuretics or steroid medications can also dehydrate the body.

As your fluid levels go down, your body steals water from saliva, making your mouth feel cottony and dry. If you don't replace fluids at this point, you'll start to feel tired, weak and headachy. As dehydration advances, you could experience dizziness and other severe symptoms.

It all seems so simple: Dry mouth means take a drink. The thirst signal isn't always reliable, however. If you're hiking a mountain trail in the noonday sun, you could be significantly dehydrated before the thirst sensation even begins to kick in, according to Beau Freund, Ph.D., research physiologist at the U.S. Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine in Natick, Massachusetts.

Another type of thirst—continual thirst no matter how much you drink, along with an insatiable appetite and frequent urination—can be a sign of adult-onset (Type II) diabetes.

This is the most common form of the disease and, true to its name, it targets people over age 40. The problem is that the body has too much blood sugar (glucose). The body tries to dilute the sugar buildup in the bloodstream by pulling fluids from the cells.

Symptom Relief

Thirst is a warning signal that should be heeded," says Dr. Freund. Here are some guidelines.

Drink before you get thirsty. You can't always rely on thirst, says Liz Applegate, Ph.D., sports nutritionist and lecturer at the University of California in Davis. That's especially true as you age, since the years tend to dull your sense of thirst. Drinking a half-cup of water every hour will control mild dehydration, she says. You'll need more, however, if you are perspiring or if the air is hot or dry. Many doctors recommend drinking eight eight-ounce glasses of water a day.

Let your urine be your guide. To guard against dehydration, you need to drink enough so that your urine is clear rather than pale or dark yellow, says Dr. Applegate. Clear urine means you have adequately hydrated your body, she says.

Keep water, water everywhere. Use visual reminders to help you remember to drink enough fluids. Keep a filled bottle of water smack in the center of the fridge, for example. Carry a portable supply of fluid for your desk and car, too.

Drink before, during and after exercise. During a workout, you can lose up to four pounds of fluid before you realize you're thirsty. "To be safe, you need to drink about a half-cup 15 minutes before exercise, then every 15 minutes throughout and following exercise," says Hinda Greene, D.O., staff physician of internal medicine with the Cleveland Clinic­Florida in Fort Lauderdale. If you're feeling weak and tired during exercise, stop and drink a few ounces of water.

For long, sweaty workouts, try sports drinks. When you exercise heavily for more than two hours, you sweat away lots of water and minerals, called electrolytes, that help transmit nerve signals to the muscles. "Drinking water alone is not enough to replace these particles," says Dr. Greene. "You're better off with a sports drink." They contain salt to help you retain water, electrolytes such as potassium, and also glucose, a carbohydrate that speeds the absorption and provides energy. (If you have diabetes or high blood pressure or you're taking a prescription diuretic, ask your doctor before using these products).

Drink hard water. Water softening removes calcium and magnesium, replacing them with sodium. This may trigger thirstiness, says Dr. Greene. If you have a water-softening system in your house, you might want to consider removing it, or at least making sure your tap water is hard.

Check your medications. Let your doctor know that you think your diuretic or steroid is making you thirsty, says Dr. Greene. A lower dose could ease symptoms.

See your doctor for a blood test. Diabetes isn't a treat-it-yourself disease. "If your blood contains high amounts of glucose, you'll need to work with your doctor to get it under control," says Richard Guthrie, M.D., professor of pediatrics at the University of Kansas School of Medicine and director of the Diabetes Center at St. Joseph's Hospital in Wichita. The American Diabetes Association recommends a supervised program that includes both diet and exercise.
