This is way outside of normal. See a doctor. Have you had recent head trauma? If so get an MRI. This can also be a symptom of diabetes.

less quantity but concentrated urine, thirst due to the responds given by the hypothalamus and i think high temperature due to less release of sweat which cools the internal environment

ChefDavidMitchell: 11 months ago

For "MyUserName 1" : If you're drinking that much water during hoops practice and STILL are really thirsty, etc., and fatigued & dizzy - disoriented & confused , as well,which are CLASSIC signs of being dehydrated , maybe you should have your GP Dr check you for diabetes as a safety-check, and hopefully all will be within reg limits. As far as what can be done, switch over from just water as a hydration source to chilled water (a lot ! Try some before practice, then during , and then after in thirds amount for balanced intake , etc), AND "Powerade" or "Gatorade X " , etc., or some enhanced sports drink like that where it has water in it, but, it also has loads of electrolytes, protein, carbs, minerals , & everything else that speeds recovery and re-charge,& quenches thirst , OK..? Do run this by your Dr, however, just to be safe , OK...?! 6/02/12 ....///

By the time you are thirsty, you are already dehydrated.

viddy134: 11 months ago

Being dizzy, shaking, headaches, dry throat, tongue like sandpaper, dark brown urine, decreased urination, sore throat, sweating, double heart beats. You should go see a doctor if any of these are happening to you, apart from sore throat because that happens a lot, but if you're experiencing dark brown urine, being dizzy all the time, shaking a lot, headaches often, go see one.

TF4 and Chef are right. Get checked out, and the trick is to drink water throughout the day. By the time you are thirsty, you are already water-depleted.

Symptoms of dehydration usually begin with thirst and progress to more alarming manifestations as the need for water becomes more dire. The initial signs and symptoms of mild dehydration in adults appear when the body has lost about 2% of it's total fluid. These mild dehydration symptoms are often (but not limited to):

Thirst
Loss of Appetite
Dry Skin
Skin Flushing
Dark Colored Urine
Dry Mouth
fatigue or Weakness
Chills
Head Rushes
