For the past several months, I have
noticed that every time I have had any
water to drink, I frequently use the
restroom. Two days ago, I was up every
twenty minutes using the restroom, the
water was going right through my system.
I couldn't sleep at all because I either
felt dehydrated or I needed to use the
restroom. I don't know what to do. My
heart seems to beat a bit more fast and I
just can't seem to retain any fluids. I
am a healthy 20 yr old. Could I be a
diabetic?

Increased thirst and increased urination
are some of the symptoms of diabetes.
But it doesnot mean that you are diabetic.
For that you should go for urine test
and blood glucose tests. With these
tests you can confirm whether you are
diabetic or not.
diabetes can
cause several problems, including frequent
urination, excessive thirst, hunger,
fatigue, weight loss, and blurry vision.

I thought I was a healthy 23 year old and
I ended up being diagnosed as a diabetic.
I'm on meds now and I'm doing very well.
And not going to bathroom alot like I did
before. Just go get
checked. It's that simple. I was stubborn
and didn't want to go to the doctor, but I
had no choice at the last minute. I got
very sick,ended up in the hospital and
almost went into a coma cause of my sugar
levels....So it's my advice to other
people just to go get checked before it
gets worse. good Luck!
