Signs of diabetes are rapid weight gain or loss, changes in vision, frequent urination, and weak bladder.

Increased appetite, tingling hands and feet, muscle and nerve impairment causing an unsteady gait, sores, cuts and bruises that take longer to heal, increased appetite, fatigue, weakness in the back of your legs, pain from cramping are all signs that you may have diabetes.

Moreover, muscle weakness in either your hands or your feet, feelings of pins and needles in any part of your body, heat and cold insensitivity, and trouble walking are signs. The hallmark warning sign of diabetes is increased thirst which occurs as the extra glucose absorbs moisture from the cells.

Men and women typically have the same signs and symptoms. They are the result of the pancreas not producing insulin at all or the amount produced is inadequate for controlling blood glucose levels.

High blood sugar, or hyperglycemia, is an increase in blood glucose concentration. The high sugar concentration is what causes diabetic symptoms. Because with type 2 diabetics, the symptoms last over an extended period of time, the damage to the body is more severe.

Diabetes is a serious life threatening disease that must be evaluated by a physician in the early stages. The sooner the disease is diagnosed the sooner medication can be administered to prevent complications and stop the disease from getting worse.

Life style modification, including increased exercise and diet modification, may prevent type 2 diabetes. The disease, previously known as adult-onset or non insulin dependent diabetes, is the most common form of diabetes induced by high blood sugar.

If you are over 40, have a family hereditary history of diabetes or are obese, you have a high likelihood of developing diabetes. Types 1 and 2 diabetes have the same symptoms. but distinct causes.

Hyperglycemia, or high blood sugar, the cause of the diabetes, is lifestyle induced in persons with type 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disorder where the insulin producing beta cells of the pancreas are destroyed by the body.

Five to 10 percent of all the diagnosed cases of type 1 diabetes in the United States have type 1 diabetes. Most of the time it affects people younger than 30, but it can occur at any age.

Just 6 million of the 17 million people who have diabetes have been diagnosed. Apparently. the symptoms remain undiagnosed in these individuals because many of them believe that they are not severe enough to consult with a physcian.

When your pancreas does not produce insulin or you are insulin resistant, that is your cells don't respond to the insulin that is produced, high blood sugar is the result. High blood sugar concentration can lead to heart disease, impotence, vascular damage, amputations, blindness, stroke and recurrent infections, and high blood pressure.

Commonly occurring during pregnancy, type 3 or gestational diabetes, symptoms are difficult to detect, but they subside after the child is born.
