Can symptoms of Diabetes Insipidus disappear and then return?
My 20 month old had the typical symptoms of diabetes insipidus from birth (frequent urination and extreme thirst). Then at 5 months old they went away and were replaced with constipation which continued until she was 11 months old. Then again she was putting out high volumes of pale urine and drinking more water than I have ever seen a child drink. Now at 20 months she is back to being constipated and not drinking or urinating heavily. Doctors want to do a MRI but do not want to undergo such an evasive procedure if there is no diagnosis.

MRI IS NOT INVASIVE…………….ONLY WAT TO SEE IF THAT IS PROBLEM………………..WHAT IS GLUCOSE READING………………
As a father of a large family I would be doing what the doctor says and fast. An MRI is the least invasive proceedure for internal examination. It’s magnetic imaging not xray.I went with a grandaughtwer while she had it done for a faulty stomach valve which needed major surger eventually. It was nothing at all to be concerned about.
They may well be examing for a twist in the bowel and that needs finding.
