Symptom #7: Polydipsia
Polydipsia refers to excessive thirst or drinking. It is a non-specific symptom that can be seen in many disorders such as diabetes mellitus, diabetes insipidus, hypokalemia, low blood volume, and more. Polydipsia is not a disease but instead a symptom of a disease.
Polydipsia is often associated with other symptoms such as polyuria. Excessive water intake can result in a low serum concentration of blood urea nitrogen, red blood cells, and sodium.
