    Perhaps your electrolyte balance is out of whack? For hydration you need to look at more than water consumption; you need to look at calcium, chloride, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium and sodium. Drinking too much water can actually dilute these.......

    Have you tried an electrolyte drink?

    Edit: 20 liters...holy crap! How?

    Yeah with the work up get Diabetes ruled out. Excessive thirst is one of the signs. This is the sort of thing that has to be figured out sooner rather than later because, life threatening.
