Type 2
I have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes ,2 months ago , which is being controlled by diet ,but i still have thirsty days, any tips on how to control this, this leads me to passing urine frequently
 
Drink LOADS of water. It's the only thing for it. Once you're in the swing of downing litres of water every day the thirst will go away, and th etrips to the loo will become less frequent.
 
are u sure your bloods arent high when u feel thirsty?
if so might be best to eliminate whatever causes the highs, if not as already said :D
 
ackie,
If your blood glucose levels are too high, that will cause the weeing. It's the weeing that causes the thirst, not the other way round.
If it's not due to high blood glucose, just drink loads of water and it will get better. If you dehydrate, you'll feel awful.
Do you check your Bg at least once a day?
