Is dehydration only a sign of diabetes? please advise!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Of course not!: Hi. I'm sure you are aware dehydration occurs in anyone who doesn't have access to water (fluids). If a non-diabetic starts walking into the desert without water and keeps going, eventually he/she will become dehydrated, right?!
