Question 1

i've been eating healthy for about 3 1/2 weeks now. watching nutrition and cut out processed. is frequent urination common with diet change?

Accepted Answer

It is not uncommon!: The thing that seems to cause diuresis (increased urination) for most people with diet change is the significant reduction in sodium that comes with eating healthier/avoiding more processed foods. Often, when people lose more weight the first week or so on a "diet", it is chalked up to "water weight." Your body soon equilibrates. Remember, healthy drinking of more water also leads to more urine:)

Question 2

would drinking 2 liters of soda (non diet) per day cause chronic frequent urination?

Accepted Answer

Let review, drinking: In reviewing your symptoms I would need to ask a few more questions? Are you thristy all the time? Do you feel hungry when you shouldn't. Is there a family history of Diabetes in your family? Do you have any behavioral issues? Do you crave sweets? Any weight loss?  Do you wake up frequently in the night to urinate? Are you taking any medicines that could cause urinary retention? Any dysuria? What

Question 3

could frequent urination with having to strain be caused by a lack of water in the diet?

Accepted Answer

Frequent urination: If you have frequent urination (F), get a urine culture and urine analysis. Urinary tract infections can give your F. If you have one, get antibiotics to treat it. F can be seen in diabetes insipidus (DI) or diabetes mellitus (DM). Your urine analysis will show a dilute urine in DI and a urine with glucose in it in DM. Lack of water does not cause F. See a physician for a answer to your question

Question 4

i have mildly low sodium blood levels. my random urine sodium is 80 mmol/l. urine osmolality is normal. my symptoms are bad muscle cramping, thirst, and frequent urination. im not on any medications and i eat a normal diet. could this be siadh?

Accepted Answer

: You should let us know you serum Na, urine osmolality and serum osmolatity (measured, not calculated). For a healthy young individual, urine osmolality should be quite diluted, i.e. less than 100 when serum sodium is low. Hyponatremia may present is patient with chronic kidney disease due to the impaired capacity of diluting the urine. If kidney function is normal, SIADH is likely the culprit.

Question 5

my blood glucose level is 105 mg/dl after fasting for 12 hours. my symptoms are muscle cramping with exercise, always thirsty, and frequent urination. i also do a low carb diet. could i have low insulin and my muscles arent getting glucose?

Accepted Answer

: Your information is consistent with insulin resistance. not low insulin. If you are even slightly overweight, losing weight is imperative, as is increasing your physical activity/exercise. It could be considered that you have pre-diabetes and it would be prudent to see a doctor for long term management.

my blood glucose level is 105 mg/dl after fasting for 12 hours. my symptoms are bad muscle cramping during exercise, always thirsty, and frequent urination. i also do a low carb diet. could i have low insulin and my muscles arent getting glucose?

Accepted Answer

: Would worry first about high glucose and diabetes as your symptoms are typical of diabetes. Insulin resistance is a common mechanism and seeing your doc for an exam and further workup would be best.

Question 7
