I thought I would post this in the prayer area, but I'm really just looking for information on this and advice. The other day I was forced to go to the walk in clinic as I was having extreme thirst that lasted for hours. I drank a lot of fluids (water and PowerADE) and couldn't go to the bathroom but a little bit in 3 hours. When I did an internet search it came up as dehydration, but I know I was well hydrated.
I've had fasting blood sugar tests where they give you the fructose drink and it showed that I had pre-diabetes. And I talked to the specialist and she said that it could be that I'm having highs and lows and suggested that it might not show up on any labs like the A1C test. Anyways when I was at the walk in clinic they tested me for kidney function and diabetes and all looked good, my blood sugar was 116 which is pretty good and my A1C test came back within normal range.
But I know I wasn't imaging the thirst as it was unquenchable for several hours and even made me feel ill I was so thirsty. It happened two mornings in a row just after my morning coffee and now I'm back to normal. I looked online about "brittle diabetes" and it said it can be dangerous leading to hospitalization and even death.
Thanks for any advice.
