Is that normal to get thirsty all the time with a vp shunt?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not thirsty: It is not common for people with a shunt to feel excessive thirst. You may also want to keep track of how much liquid you consume and check your weight. Sometimes lab tests can help explain this if it is a problem.
