If you suspect you may have it, get some bloodwork done from your doctor.

In addition to the above, if it is an advanced case, you excrete sugar in the urine instead of metabolizing it, and your breath smells of acetone.

Sometimes there are none, but as it worsens there may be
thirst, swelling of the ankles etc. Sometimes faintness. You
can get online information from the diabetes association.
Diabetes can lead to dialysis, blindness, heart & eye
problems, and amputation of limbs if it is not kept in check.

If you go pee a lot or are always thirsty or if you get dizzy when you don't have sugar in your system.

The most common symptoms of diabetes are excessive urination and thirst. Other symptoms include general fatigue, dry "cotton" mouth and, of course, a high blood glucose level.

My aunt had it and she was always thirsty for water. I'm sure there are others but that is what she complained about

The symptoms vary from person to person. sores that don't heal, extreme thirst that can't be quenched, exhaustion, in extreme cases a person can appear to be drunk when really their blood sugar is low if your not sure - check with your doctor

Type 1 diabetes usually has obvious symptoms such as increased thirst, frequent urination and weight loss.

Type 2 often does not show symptoms right away which is why it goes unnoticed at frist. People with type 2 diabetes often are not diagnosed for 4-7 years after the onset of the disease. It is recommended that people over 45 get tested regularly.

I would like to say to those of you who are on the needle.that when you have a high reading do your self a favor and take another blood sample be for you take your shot .
The meters are not accurate enough and can be 10 points to high .making you take to much insulin. People have been taken to the hospital because of this .

ok i am the youngest child in iowa that got diabetes so you have asked the right question. High blood sugars yiur spit is white instead of clear you throw up your always thirsty and you end up in the hospital alot. Lows you feel shaky but you do not want to eat or drink you get very irritated insulin raction you kick you scream your vision gets very blury you dont know who the people are aroud you until you come out of the insulin reaction you also get a blood sugar so high that your ears start to hurt also with lows you get a headache in your eyeball

symptoms of diabetes are endless thirst (thristy all the time and you dont seem to get enough water even though you can drink anymore, frequent urination, (not just because you drank a lot of water) when your blood sugar is really high you itch like crazy under your skiin and all over, dizzy or light headed, blurred vision, restless, insomnia, night sweats, headaches, dry mouth you are prone to yeast infections because the sugar that spills over in your urine reacts with the PH in your nether regions and makes you itch a lot down there. There are a lot more symptoms it could go on and on

The thing to keep in mind is that you can have diabetes and have NO symptoms. I was discovered to be diabetic only after I got a skin infection that got very bad quickly. Diabetes can make it harder to heal from an infection, and my doctor decided he'd better test me. Bingo. :-( But otherwise, who knows how long I might have gone without knowing it.

If you have any concerns at all, a diabetes test is quick an easy. Your doctor can do it right while you are in the office. Good luck.

constant thirst, increased urination, uncontrollable hunger, blurred vision, fatique.
