Diabetes?: When one has excessive thirst, one concern is the possibility of diabetes. Check with your doctor if these symptoms persist.

Could be a sign: It could be that it's just very dry during the winter and your body just needs more water. However, it could be a sign that your body has too much blood glucose floating around. A sign that you may have diabetes.
