  1. I drink a glass or two of water a day.I cannot force myself to drink
    more. Drinking more sends me to the bathroom too often. It just goes
    right through me. I feel like I have no thirst mechanism. How do I get
    it back?

    Thanks
    Rocco

    I was told to drink more water due to frequent UTI's. I found that
    once I got to about five glasses a day going to bathroom became less
    frequent. It's something to do with a greater capacity and/or dilution
    of the irritants in the urine. Now I'm quite comfortable drinking
    eight glasses a day and the infections have gone.
