A member asked:
I have been so thirsty the whole day, no amount of water is quenching my thirst. my throat is also kind of burning, like it does when we're very thirsty. today is the first day this is happening. can it be something other than diabetes?

Thirst can be due to many reasons, do not panic on just one day thirst. Gargle with warm water for your throat irritation. If thirst persists for a few days then see your MD

Did you drink a lot of alcohol last night? Is it very hot where u r? You may be dehydrated from that. Diabetes would be way down my list of possibilities.
