dry mouth, urinating, and tiredness

[saintdee]

hi all

for the last few days i have had a very dry mouth, i have been needing to wee more and am very tired. i have also been suffering with a bad back for a couple of months that the docs sat is chronic sciatica or a pro-lapsed disc. i have been thinking that it could be cancer in my back and i think this may of started off my anxiety symptoms. can anyone offer advice?

Hiya, did you say youve been diagnosed with sciatic/prolapsed disc?
You may well have a urine infection. Left untreated, this can cause back pain. Take a urine sample to you gps asap for urinalysis.

Does anyone in your family have Diabetes can I ask?

no one in my family has had diabeties.

i have had the lower back pain for 2 and half months and it came on after a game of football.

It maybe a torn muscle. I think it would be a good idea to see your gp, and explain the problems with the dry mouth, tiredness, and frequent urination. Hope you feel better soon.
