Hey so if I think I have it what should I do to ease the symptoms before being really diagnosed

[@davidbancroft5604]

Is it common for DI patients to have a deficiency in thirst sensation as well, i.e. they don't know when they're becoming dehydrated until it's too late?

[@stall8906]

What happen to DI patient, if he insist to not drink for long times. What happen to his body? It is dangerous?
