Avatar n tn My son was tested for diabetes insipidus. The symptoms I was told to look for are extreme thirst and extreme urination which leads to dehydration. To my knowledge it is not related to infections but my son is eight and not as young as your grand child. Maybe that changes the symptoms.
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.

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 f tn It can be due to many reasons which can be physiological or disease-related, and include excessive intake of liquids, diuretic substances (including tea, caffeine, alcohol, certain drugs), anxiety, exposure to cold, diabetes mellitus, diabetes insipidus (central or nephrogenic), urinary tract infections or obstruction, etc to name a few more common ones. I suggest you to consult a urologist and get it evaluated. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.

In males prostatitis can also cause such symptoms.
Avatar n tn I know this is an old thread but can Diabetes Insipidus really cause generalized edema? Most if not all doctors seem to think it doesn't from what I've read online.
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 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 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 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 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.

Avatar f tn Sorry, just realized you already mentioned he was tested for diabetes. I encourage you to look up diabetes insipidus, though, just to see if that seems fit his symptoms. I would put my bets on the hernia...that when he lies down, it moves in a way that rubs a nerve or a muscle that is interpreted as a need to pee.
5283093 tn?1379164447 If you drink water a lot and yet feel dehydrated, then two things need to be ruled out first. One is diabetes mellitus (high blood sugar) and the other is diabetes insipidus (disorder with increased formation of very dilute urine). If you are passing a lot of urine then apart from these two disorders it can also be urinary tract infection. Working excessively in heat or sun or exercising too much can also make you feel dehydrated.

In your case, urinary tract infection should be ruled out by getting a complete urine examination and a urine culture done. I hope it helps.
Avatar m tn Hello, Increased frequency of urination can be physiological or disease-related, and include excessive intake of liquids, diuretic substances (including tea, caffeine, alcohol, certain drugs), anxiety, exposure to cold, diabetes mellitus, diabetes insipidus (central or nephrogenic), urinary tract infections or obstruction, etc to name a few more common ones.
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 n tn Get a second opinion. My niece has jeuvenile diabetes and those were her exact symptoms. He should have a blood test.
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?

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 f tn Sounds like Diabetes insipidus to me. This is caused because your pituitary gland is not making enough Anti-diuretic Hormone. The medication used for this is called Dessmopressin or DDAVP. It is available in a pill form, nasal spray or injection. There are a few other conditions that can mimic this so it is important to get it ruled in or out. I have this and without medication I am also up every half hour drinking and peeing.

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.
