Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 What ever's causing it, mate; Surely to god there's better stuff than coke to try and slake it with? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Could be lots of things, many of them pretty serious.. Get yourself back to the doctor ASAP.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Astanley 11,472 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Are you sure its thirst and not a craving for more coke cola , which is addictive , try drinking water til you see the doctor . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gaj1612 99 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 If you think it could be diabetes pumpin a load coke into you is something you want to avoid, the amount of sugar will keep pushing your blood sugar levels up and you'll be thirsty. Are you pissing all the time as well? Google the symtoms and see what you think 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
baw 4,360 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 You eat anything really salty mate? I know if I have a kebab after a night on the tiles, I could drink a well dry Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hedge hunter 107 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Belive me mate, you really don't want to be drinking loads of coke cola. Its really not good for your health. As daft as it seems my mrs was addicted to the stuff, made her really ill in the long term, when we finally weaned her off the stuff she went full out cold turkey, funny know but really wasnt at the time. Just my two pence worth cheers hh 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
