Thirsty!

[amper02 15]

I was sleeved on 10/20. I am always soooooo thirsty I drink and drink and drink water.... It doesn't seem to quench my thirst. I have tried crystal light, adding lemon drinking it super cold or room temp. Before surgery/preop, the only thing that made me not thirsty was soda. I know that isn't an option now.... Trying not to fall back into old habits. Any suggestions?

Try coconut Water. It has electrolytes.

i envy your problem

good for you realizing that cola is not an option

looks like you have tried many good things

thirst is a symptom of diabetes

is that possible???

being sleeved would/should improve the diabetes, so thats confusing

"maybe" go to the old standard of calling NUT/dr

explain how you are sooo thirsty always, but you are still thirsty

he might have a suggestion - or he might tell you to "get over it"!!

there is no such thing as drinking too much water

but not being able to get satisfaction from drinking lots of Water, and still be thirsty

that isn't good for you

hopefully you'll get good suggestions

i would just suggest calling the good ol' doc

drinking to your health

good luck

kathy
