Its starting to get right on my tits I must get up 2/3 times a night to have a piss,This has been happening for about a year now so i,m used to it[even tho its frustrating]
When i was younger this never happened,I could sleep for a small African country.........
Has anybody else experienced this thru getting that little bit older?????
Diabetes - If you have type II you get thursty alot, usually 1-2hrs after food if your diet is not controlled ansd you are consuming lots of carbs and sweet things.
So if you don't want to piss all night try the following....
Avoid sugary foods in the evening (just as a test - before you go to doctor)
Don't eat after 8pm (or 3-4 hrs before you sleep)
Drink water if you are thirsty upto an hour before you retire, then you can piss it out before sleeping.
Why is all this happening (if you are diabetic?) because your body has excess sugar and it wants to get rid of it so pissing is the only option (unless you go down the gym or do a load of excercise and burn of the blood sugars)
Its a balance - water intact and sugar control (diet) and exercise.
Potatoes/Bread/Rice/cakes/Biscuits/cereal are generally all type of carbohydrates and cabohydrates will get converted to sugar in your body (to give you energy).
Avoid excess alcohol late at night,
If you sweat in bed (while your partner isn't) it indicates that you are dehydrated - go drink a load of water e.g 1/2 litre.
Sounds like a long list but it is not to adhere to this just help you understand your night pissing symptoms.
PS.Then again if you are getting on a bit ask yourself this Q. when I piss is it a full long bladder emptying piss or a dribbling piss? Because you myight have a Prostate Problem. depends how old you are! see your doc anyway as ignoring symptoms is not a good idea!
Good Luck!
Depending on age it can also be a sign of Prostate trouble, better safe than sorry, have a check up, it could be any number of things, all of which are best caught early, it could also be nothing to worry about
