Major Signs And Symptoms Of Type 1 And Type 2 Diabetes

Millions of people in U.S

Millions of people in U.S. (both adults and children) have diabetes and they even dont know. So it's necessary for everyone to know the symptoms of diabetes to make yourself clear that you are not the one living with the symptoms of diabetes. In this article we are going to discuss detail about the various signs and symptoms of this disease.

The diabetes symptoms mostly begin gradually and can be difficult to identify initially. The condition may only be discovered maybe during a routine physical examination for some other ailment. The symptoms may include fatigue, sudden weight loss, slow healing of wounds, excessive thirst, blurred vision, frequent urination - especially at night. When there is excess glucose in the blood, the body gets rid of it through frequent urination. The loss of fluids brings extreme thirst, leading to more frequent urination.

A doctor may also suspect a patient to have diabetes if he or she has health problems related to diabetes, such as changes in vision, heart disease, numbness in the feet and legs or sores that are slow to heal. These symptoms do not imply that the person has diabetes, but anyone with these problems should definitely see a doctor.

A diabetic person may actually show no symptoms. Type 2 diabetes, in particular, develops gradually, even for years before it is diagnosed. When symptoms develop, they differ from person to person. The two most common symptoms that occur in most people with the diabetes are increased thirst and frequent urination.
