What Causes Light Headedness, Frequent Urination, Increased Thirst And Hunger?

default
Posted on Tue, 22 Sep 2015
Question: For last several days I have been light headed, very thirsty. I have noticed the need to urinate more often. And I feel hungry all the time but in a ill sort of way. Like I feel slighty queasy if I don't eat but eating doesn't make the hunger/queasy feeling go away either. I should note that I am not eating when I feel this hunger unless it is already meal time because as I said it is a strange sort of hunger, it doesn't feel like I am really hungry if that makes any sense. Lastly when I feel this strange hunger I am usually a little shaky but not once the feeling goes away.
