RE: Drinks excessively

[Guest guest]

I have asked my friend repeatedly about her son being checked for

diabetes and she tells me his blood work is fine. You can be sure I

will keep this in mind and bring it up again. Louise

Re: Drinks excessively/Carol

Hi ~ I know this may not be the reason for the excessive drinking, but

wanted to mention that prior to Dylan being diagnosed with type 1

diabetes he drank excessively....which was one of the warning signs. We

are talking like major drinking....cup after cup after cup. Was having

lots of accidents too...due to the excessive drinking & what we later

found out was high blood sugar. I don't want to scare anyone & have

them think this is the reason, but it might be something worth checking

into if you haven't before. (and let me tell you....I don't wish this

darn diabetes on anyone!!!)

DS son drinks water all the time.

I have been asking about this for years. No one seems to have a clue.

She

drinks so fast and gulps it down that I am beginning to think part of

it is

that she doesn't give her body time to realize it has been watered and

part

maybe it's something she can do for herself and part is that she loves

certain

drinks (sunny D for one) and so she goes for taste. I just don't think

she

knows when enough is enough.

She isn't typical, She's Trisha!
