People with diabetes often complain of having some of the following vague unexplained concerns, which may indicate that you perhaps could be exhibiting diabetic type symptoms:
• Unexplained weight loss
• Deep breathing while not exerting yourself
• Insatiable hunger and thirst
• Fatigue or tiredness
• Frequent urination
• Vomiting or nausea
• Sores that take longer than usual to heal
• Itchy or crawl sensation on your skin
The list above is not an inclusive list by any means but they are symptoms that are should be investigated further by your medical professional. An early diagnosis of diabetes can then get you not only relief from the symptoms you are displaying but proper treatment to keep your diabetes in hand in order for you to remain well.
Another reason that you should pay attention for any unexplained symptoms is if you are pregnant as up to 50 per cent of women will develop Gestational Diabetes or more commonly called GDM Gestational Diabetes Mellitus. This disease mimics type 2 diabetes due to not enough insulin that is produced and the unresponsiveness. In all around two to five per cent of pregnant women get this disease after giving birth, with the symptoms may even disappear or lessen.
What is Diabetes Type 1?
This happens when pancreatic beta cells are lost and the body stops producing insulin, or makes an insignificant amount. Figures show that approximately 10 percent of diabetes in the US has this type of disease. Those that affected are usually adults and children and this is commonly called juvenile diabetes. An older person, who has had their pancreases removed due to the affects of alcoholism or damage from an injury, may also get type 1. This disease needs daily insulin for their survival.
Diabetes Type 2
With type 2, the pancreas makes insulin but the body cells are resistant to its effects. This makes the insulin useless either part of or all of the time, as it's ignored. Type 2 may also be called insulin resistance. In a person with type 2 diabetes, the body tries to make even more insulin than normal because it thinks there is a lack of it. Because the production of insulin is not meeting the needs of the body it thinks, the pancreas struggles with production of it. This results in type 2 diabetes. A rough estimation has approximately 90% of diabetics in the US are people with type 2.
