[QUOTE="chalup, post: 1299258, member: 306126"] Hi and welcome. Do you have a meter and test your blood levels? If not, you need to get one and start. If you do good on you :). I can't speak to what may be causing your thirst but I know I am very thirsty in the morning simply from not drinking for 8 or more hours and often sleeping with my mouth open lol.
