I don't get thirsty either but I drink at least a couple of pints of bottled spring water a day. Don't pee much during the day but lots at night. Better to pee a lot and replace the minerals, especially magnesium. we're all low on magnesium. Check your pulse, if it isn't steady, more minerals and lots of fish oil. Avoid a stroke!Hi Leaves, not something ive thought about much before but i dont drink much and i never ever drink water especially if its cold. I cant stand cold drinks and will drink herbal or decaf tea throughout the day but i never feel like i need a glass of water.Ive always been like this and as a child whenever i drank cold water i used to feel like i was drowning. Strangely i still pee a lot and my pee is always light straw coloured so i know im not dehydrated. if i drank more i would never be of the loo.
Re irritable bladder, im not sure what it is but often i lay in bed and need a pee, i get up and go then as soon as i lay down i need to go again and so on. the other night it was 5 times in the first hour of being in bed and every time it was more than just a drop! is that similar?
I'm the opposite. I have water beside me all the time since I got sick. During the day I sip, and at night I always have water bottles beside the bed and I guesstimate I sit up and drink at least 10 times, because I'm hot and my mouth feels so dry
Drink lots more I think, preferably water! Long time ago when my wife and I first met, we realised she doesn't seem to get thirst signals like she should. For a long time now she consciously makes herself drink. I'm not a medic, but I believe the pee urge is partly amplified by its acidity, so if insufficiently diluted can make you think you need to keep going. But like I say, it's only what others have told us, I'm not qualified myself to know.Hi Leaves, not something ive thought about much before but i dont drink much and i never ever drink water especially if its cold.
