When I wake up in the morning, I am sooooo thirsty. I get out of bed, go to the bathroom and then straight to the kitchen to down .5 liter of water. Is anyone else really, really thirsty upon waking? :uhuh:

Your sodium is low or you are dehydrated, might ought to get it checked. The first thing you should do is go to the bathroom. If you don't, you are dehydrated.

I am always thirsty. First thing in the morning i down at least .5 L. Some mornings 1L. I drink in the middle of the night too. During the day, about 7L of water. My sodium is waaaaaaay up there, believe me. Why, is this not normal?

I don't feel so thirsty all day long, just upon waking. But I always have my water with me during the day. I drink 5-6 liters a day.

I love pickles, I don't know why I haven't been eating them as much lately? :unsure:

I'd be willing to bet your sodium is a lot lower than you think if you are drinking that much water.

Ya'll are lacking sodium, it's flushed out with all the water you're drinking.

Honestly, short of sprinking it on my tongue throughout the day, I don't know how I would add more. I salt ALL my food (with the exception of my pp :yucky:) and not at all sparingly. I recently began salting my celery and cukes between meals too. I have naturally low blood pressure since childhood(my last read was 80/60) so I am not afraid to salt my food. But I am still always parched.

What if that is the first thing I do but I'm still thirsty all the time? I wake up in the middle of the night thirsty.

That's what I was thinking... maybe low or high blood sugar levels?

I have had my bl sugars tested because the doc thought my thirst and my night time bathroom visits might point to diabetes. No problems there :shrug:
