Hi, I m always thirsty during the night. I keep a glass of water by my bedside &easily go through 3 glasses. I keep having to go to the toilet to pee a lot as well, it s really bad at night and keeps me awake for hours. Also I sometimes feel out of breath a lot &recently I ve been getting sharp stomachs pains. What can be causing this? Thanks.
Hi there, Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Increased thirst and increased urination especially in the night could be signs of diabetes mellitus. You need to check your blood glucose levels to rule out diabetes mellitus. There are many causes for abdominal pain. With symptoms suggestive of diabetes mellitus, this abdominal pain could be due to urinary tract infection. This infection can also explain increased need to urinate. Urinalysis may be done to confirm it. So as first step, get your blood glucose level checked and get an urinalysis done. Is this answer helpful?
