Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I have seen all the reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity).

• I suggest you get the following tests done.

1. Urine osmolality test.
2. Ultrasound of the bladder, post-void.
3. 24-hour urine volume.

• If these tests are positive, then you will need a water deprivation test for a day, which will confirm that it is diabetes insipidus. For which medicine is in the form of a nasal spray.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I saw the report (attachment removed to protect patient identity).

• Your urine osmolality is very low and total urine volume is high, which means your body's ability to concentrate urine is very weak. This condition is called as diabetes insipidus.

• Diabetes insipidus is of two types, central and nephrogenic, and the treatment is different for both. To differentiate them, you need to get admitted for a day and undergo a water deprivation test, which will clear the line of treatment.

• You need to consult a nephrologist for this, but once we come to the exact diagnosis, treatment will be effective.

• Until then, drink water equal to your urine output, so that you do not get dehydrated.
