What Causes Excessive Thirst And Urethral Bleeding?
I have insatiable thirst and am drinking a lot of water. Today, when I wiped after diarrhea, I had traces of red blood but seemed that it was coming from the urinary tract area. I have been taking Forteo shots for severe osteoporosis for about a month now. Should I go to the ER?

Hello,
I don't think this is a situation which you need to go to the ER. I think you should first do a stool culture to check for infection (shigella). Also, do a urine sample analysis to check for infection.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
