And I have to cut down my drinking I was drinking 64oz. Of water, 3 cup of coffee 1 bottle of single .Now I drink a total of 32oz. Day. So you need to talk with your doctor.

That's it 32oz a day I could never survive on that need at least twice that amount. I never have problems when sleeping, usually up once a night & never any accidents !

I find that if I have to go to the toilet a lot then it's usually because my blood sugar is high.
