diabetes

Avatar n tn Diabetes insipidus(water diabetes) is due to a hormone lacking that helps us hold onto water, these children will urinate excessively, drink excessively, lose weight and be sick with high sodiums, there is a form due to the pituitary hormone lacking and that which is due to the kidney not responding to the normal hormone. It does not sound like repeated fevers alone is diabetes insipidus.
Avatar m tn Is there a medication for Diabetes Insipidus other than Desmopressin? The headaches as a side affect are dibilitating. This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/557217'>peuatrygland diabetts</a>.
Avatar n tn I have been diagnosed with a fib, several years ago and am taking meds (beta blocker and antiarrhythmic, coumadin) I had a PVI 18 months ago and initially the frqency and duration of episodes diminished but never disappeared. recently, I was diagnosed with diabetes insipidus and have a fib episodes of increasing frequency (almost daily0 and duration (3-8 hours). Can there be a relationship between the tow (a fib and diabetes insipidus?
Avatar f tn She never mentioned anything about insulin and that's because she has Diabetes Insipidus, which she clearly stated. Diabetes Insipidus IS NOT Diabetes Mellitus.
Avatar f tn Diabetes Insipidus is not the normal type of diabetes that can be controlled by food or by medications like metformin or insulin. Diabetes Type 1 and Type 2 are those that are controlled by food and or medications like metformin or insulin. Diabetes Insipidus is a rare condition and nothing to do with the the pancreas and production of insulin or lack of it. A blood sugar monitor will be of no use to someone with Diabetes Insipidus.
327385 tn?1378360731 Run away from that doctor immediately! You might be better served by a neurologist since your problem is located in your brain/pituitary and you've had brain surgery. Most endocrinologists deal with Type I or Type II diabetes (not DI), few deal with thyroid conditions and still very, very few deal with pituitary conditions. You are *not* obese - you have dealt with brain tumor, brain surgery, and now DI.

Avatar m tn This forum deals mostly with type 2 diabetes, people who have high blood sugar levels [mellitus]. Diabetes insipidus is kidney related. For best answers, the forum to post on is Kidney Disease & Disorders.
Avatar n tn If the levels are so low and potassium levels are high maybe a creatinine clearance test should be done to test the condition of the kidney and rule out diabetes insipidus. CPK or creatinine phosphokinase and liver enzymes should be done if there is muscle wasting. Diabetes insipidus can also cause whole body edema. Please consult an endocrine specialist and a nephrologist. Take care!
Avatar f tn Antidiuretic hormone (ADH or vasopressin) is a hormone produced by the hypothalamus and stored in the posterior pituitary gland. ADH deficiency is known as diabetes insipidus. Symptoms are frequent thirst and urination. Treatment is desmopressin (synthetic replacement for vasopressin) - taken 2 to 3 times a day.
Avatar f tn Does he seem to drink water constantly and cannot go anywhere without water? If so, it could be diabetes insipidus, which is VERY different than diabetes mellitis (Type 1 or Type 2). If not, then it could be a number of things, such as an enlarged prostrate or something else impinging on the bladder and creating a sensation of needing to go, even if the bladder is empty. It could be a problem with the nerves or muscles that connect to and control the bladder.
Avatar f tn m getting a little concerned about his size and not growing very much. He was tested back in the spring for Diabetes Insipidus for drinking so much water and it came back positive. My child eats and eat and eats but gains nothing... Could both of these issues, Diabetes Insipidus and lack of growth, be something more and maybe I should bring something up at his 2 yr appt in a month?
172023 tn?1334672284 It would not hurt to test for diabetes insipidus either. Diabetes Insipidus can occur with other diseases and is very controllable with Desmopressin Acetate. The cognitive disorder drug Anipryl can also be helpful for polyuria/polydipsia (excessive drinking and urination) as it's side-effect. Another uncommon possibility is psychogenic polydipsia and just means that your dog may have a behavioral drinking problem.
Avatar m tn I guess your vet is suggesting using the DDAVP (Desmopressin) inhaler as eyedrops. From what I can tell, this stuff runs about $78 a bottle (less if you get more than one bottle). I am kind of confused as to why you are being prescribed DAVPP for nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, because that's usually prescribed for CENTRAL Diabetes Insipidus, caused when the pituitary gland doesn't secrete enough ADH.
Avatar f tn Have you been tested for diabetes insipidus and kidney problems?
Avatar f tn My diabetes insipidus is controversial. One doctor says that I have central diabetes insipidus and others, eg. the latest urologist, say that I do not have it. Because doctors did not search the cause years ago, I think that it is not important. The condition has been intermittent for many years and thus may not be serious. I have had only a couple of bladder infections during my 65-year life, thus infections may not be causes for it. I have uterine issues, myomas and endometrial overgrowth.
Avatar n tn How old is your son? You should look into Diabetes Insipidus. My daughter is having similar issues and thats what we are currently testing for. I also havent ruled out regular diabetes either, even though they've not found her sugar to be high. Does your son's breath sometimes smell like nail polish remover?
358018 tn?1200451427 Okey-dokey. It's late. Correction. Diabetes comes from the Greek word diabainein, which means to spread one's legs appart. The term insipidus comes from the greek word "fountain". Together we have diabetes insipidus. Which you probably don't have.
Avatar m tn Adding a complicating wrench into everything is the fact that she was diagnosed earlier this week with Diabetes Insipidus, and has numerous issues with keeping her sodium levels under adequate control (they have been persistently in 171-176) and maintaining an appropriate fluid balance and replacing her excessively high urine output.
Avatar f tn Over the years my Diabetes Insipidus has fluctuated in terms of how much DDAVP I need to take. Unfortunately I pee/ and get thirsty without the med. Right now I am taking the smallest pill, and break it in half. I take it before I go to bed. I seem to be able to do ok without taking it during the day (because I can drink/pee as much as i need to. If I do not take the DDAVP at night I wake up 4-6 times needing to drink water and pee. What test said that you do not need DDAVP?
Avatar f tn This can also be the result of diseases like diabetes mellitus and diabetes insipidus. Heart, liver and kidney failure and also certain medications cause excessive thirst. Some people with severe acidity too develop a habit of drinking water to counteract the effect of acidity. You can cut down your salt, spicy and fried food intake. Avoid too much exposure to sun. Take an antacid twice a day. Eat frequent small meals. Keep a record of the water you take—do not drink more than 8-10 glasses.
Avatar f tn Hello, Without examination confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but frequent urination(polyuria) can be due to diabetes mellitus. Other possibilities are diabetes insipidus, glomerulonephritis, pyelonephritis(inflammation of the kidneys),urinary tract infection, hypercalcemia, hypokalemia(low potassium),hyperthyroidism, hyperparathyroidism and diuretic drugs. Also UTI’s need to be evaluated. For this is suggest you to consult a physician and get urine culture done. I hope it helps.
Avatar f tn Another possibility might be diabetes insipidus . Look it up on the net and see if you think this might be a possibility. Of course a doctor would have to diagnose it. You cannot walk around dehydrated all the time. So make sure you see a doctor real soon.
1608992 tn?1318720055 rinking a lot of water can be diabetes insipidus. Also called "Water Diabetes". I hear that isn't so bad, but the really important thing about it is that water should always be available and they should drink as much as they need, and they can carry on OK for years like that so long as they aren't denied water or they get dangerously dehydrated. Testing her blood and urine might be a good thing?
Avatar n tn It's a flag for diabetes. The term diabetes insipidus comes from the Greek word for "fountain". As thyroidian suggested it could also be prostate, but he is a bit young. He needs an hba1c test.
