    Heart failure? Kidney disease? That's what truly holding onto fluid usually indicates so I'd probably go to urgent care or ER if you are being serious.

    Why are you drinking so much? I agree with seeking medical advice.

    I agree, see the doctor. This could be symptom of a serious condition.

    Why are you drinking so much? If you have this excessive thirst, you probably have a Dr. issue. 8-10 glasses of fluid a day is plenty.

    I agree with others, this is something that needs to be brought to your doctors attention... now not later.
