water makes me sick

Has anyone ever heard of being allergic to water? I can't drink water it makes me sick to my stomach. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do? I have tried all different types of flavored water. And either they make me sick or don't taste good. I know water is a key part to loosing weight but if I can't drink it what should I do?

Are you only having this trouble when drinking flavored water? or do you also have this problem when drinking tap water.

If you are only having this problem when drinking flavored water then you are reacting to what the manufacturers had added to the water - additives, flavors. These days 'Flavors' are not natural and are created in a laboratory. You could make your own flavored water by adding the juice of lemon, lime or orange (from real fruit).
