why am I always hungry and thirsty?
It`s crazy how I can eat and eat and not seem full this is crazy seriously though.
At first I thought it was my period starting so I kinda left it at that then I took a pregnancy and that was negative, so my period started when it was suppose too and now its done and I am still hungry and thirsty, go to bed at night so hungry I have hunger pains I wake up in the morning and Im so hungry I gotta eat right away.
I read on google it could be worms. ewww.
so why am I always hungry and thirsty? Could I still be pregnant?
Thanks Jenny

Extreme hunger (polyphagia), and extreme thirst (polydipsia), are two of the warning signs of diabetes. The other is frequent urination (polyuria). You should see your doctor as soon as possible to have your blood sugar tested. I don't mean to scare you, but since you had a negative preg. test and are still having these symptoms, they could mean something else. See your doctor to be sure. Good luck.

DIABETES sorry that's what it sounds like but id do another test also get checked out for worms. try eating little meals and often make sure you have balanced meals and snack on slow release Carb and protein snacks nuts and things try to sip water all day taking in your RDA if this doesn't help after a week or two i suggest making a diary of when you feel like this how you feel ( in detail) what you ingest and what your body releases note specific things like time date and amounts take this to your doc and ask to see a professional
it could be a sign of something more serious so seek advice if your in the UK check out WWW.nhsdirect.com

It wouldn't hurt to take another test. If it comes up negative, I'd check with your doctor. You may just have a low/high level of something in your system, causing you to be hungry/thirsty. Besides that, I have no idea.

No, if you do have your period you are not pregnant. Yes, to me it sounds like worms... I know it's differant but by dog had them and that what it sounds like. Also, you might want to get tested for diabetes
