Your body has ways of telling you when something is wrong. It is important that you know the symptoms of type 2 diabetes because, the sooner treatment starts, the less damage will be done to your body.
The symptoms for this disease are many and seemingly innocent so you must pay close attention. By themselves they may appear harmless-I guarantee they are not.
Here are the most common symptoms.
o Frequent urination (causing the kidneys to work harder) due to excessive urine
o Excessive thirst
o Tired and weak-flu like symptoms-causing maybe a slow down in activity levels
o Hunger and increased appetite-causing weight gain
o Weight loss in spite of eating more or weight gain fluctuations
Less common are:
o Tiredness-just a general lack of energy from the food not being metabolized
o Dry skin
o Dry mouth-causing thirst
o Head aches and pains
o Blurred vision
o Impotence
o Yeast infections
o Difficulty in healing sores frequent infections
o Nerve damage-numbness in extremities
There is absolutely no harm in erring on the side of caution for these symptoms. It is always best to check especially if you are in a high risk category or have some inherited high risk factors. IT IS MUCH BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY!
If you have high risk factors anyhow check it out with a simple blood test. It is better to control at the outset than develop complications from inaction. Listen to you're your body has to say. If you are experiencing any of the above symptoms, see your doctor.
