Warning Symptoms of Diabetes - Get Alert of Suspected Symptoms

There are some human diseases with no specific signs to notice. But, diabetes is not so. Indeed, the suspected symptoms of type 2 diabetes can be recognized with basic information on diabetes with special note on causes of diabetes. It is regrettable that some people do not posses sufficient knowledge about the warning symptoms of diabetes while a few others don't care for any of them noticed in their body. The first category of people can get alert when they come to know that they have diabetic symptoms. They can manage diabetes with periodic check ups and diabetes treatment. But it is deplorable that the second category of people cannot be saved from diabetes complications and risks. Be sure, the risk can sometimes be highly fatal. Here we get into discussion on some of the warning symptoms of diabetes.



Getting Fatigue: When your body is not in a position to absorb the glucose from the food what you eat, it makes you feel fatigue. If the glucose is not absorbed by the blood cells, conversion to energy is absent and the body gets very tired when lacking energy. Getting fatigue with hard work can be justifiable for any normal person. On the other hand, even when a light physical activity makes you fatigue, you need to consult a doctor.



Feeling sweetness: Sweet breath cannot be sweet or enjoyable for a diabetic. It will have to be seriously viewed if you feel your breath sweet for no reason. An unexplained feeling of sweetness is not with a normal person. It can probably be a symptom of diabetes which should be diagnosed and treated properly.



Hunger and thirst: Hunger and thirst are very usual diabetes symptoms. Though you eat food as per your schedule, the food intake is not properly utilized means the glucose is not burnt to energy. Instead, unused glucose to the body is stored in the blood stream in the form of diabetic sugar. When the blood gets polluted with diabetic sugar and the body is not rejuvenated, a diabetic experiences thirst and hunger.



Frequent urination: When the glucose is not put to energy conversion process as a whole, the excess glucose not brought for utilization is kept in store for no use. By this time, the kidneys work more but in vain and as a result of this, the excess glucose in fluid form gets away through frequent urination. Though frequent urination is significant for suspecting diabetic symptom, some people ignore this for the simple reason that it is very usual in day to day events.



Dehydration of the body: It can be justified that dehydration follows after frequent urination. However, the body's dehydration is compensated by frequent drinking of water following diabetic thirst. That way, a diabetic body undergoes the cycle of 'Frequent urination - Dehydration of the body - Drinking more water - Compensating dehydration and thirst - Again urination'. Though this cycle is a normal process in our body, the 'Frequency' is the deciding factor for a person for diagnosing diabetes.

Diabetes - 7 Critical Symptoms of Diabetes to Alert You to the Presence of the Disease

Diabetes is the inability of the body to convert sugar into energy and so the sugar remains in the blood instead of going to the muscles then passes into the urine where it leaves the body. So even though there are large amounts of sugar in the blood, because it's eliminated as waste, the body  loses its main source of fuel required for energy.



An estimated 23.6 million people in the United States or 7.8 percent of the population have diabetes. Of those, 17.9 million have been diagnosed, and about 5.7 million people have not yet been diagnosed. Each year, about 1.6 million people aged 20 or older are diagnosed with diabetes.  Unfortunately many persons remain totally unaware that they have diabetes until they go for a physical or annual examination, when the disease shows up in their urine analysis or in blood-work. In many cases concerned family members will notice changes in the person who has diabetes that he or she may be ignoring.  It's important to pay attention to your body so as to identify the following:



7 Symptoms of Diabetes:



1. Excessive thirst and dry mouth even after having something to drink.



2. Increased urination.  It should not be concluded that one is diabetic based on this singular symptom because there are other causes of increased urination.



3. Unusual weight loss or gain. This can be attributed to other medical issues like hypo- or hyper-thyroidism, so it's important to have a medical examination and blood tests to determine the cause.



4. Blurred vision. This is a area that should be given careful attention as many persons are diagnosed with diabetes for the first time after they experience problems with their vision. Diabetes can  cause temporary, and sadly, sometimes permanent blindness, like my former co-worker who had to be led out of his office because he literally lost his vision while sitting at his desk.  Fortunately his loss was not permanent and his sight was gradually restored.



5. Nausea,  with or without vomiting



6. Slow healing cuts or sores.  Some persons will also find that they bruise easily.



7. Frequent vaginal infections in women and yeast infection in men.



Diabetes is a serious disease that is generally considered a life-long disease, especially if there are other factors involved such as a family history of the disease, hypertension or high blood pressure, high cholesterol, excess weight - being 20% above your recommended weight for your bodyframe; race or ethnic background.  Research indicates that  the risk of diabetes is greater in Hispanics, African-Americans, Native Americans, and Asians.



Interestingly there are large numbers of persons who were diagnosed with diabetes who have been able to stop taking medication and reportedly had 'good' readings indicating that the disease was under control. They attribute  this to making changes in their eating habits and diet, regular exercise of at least half hour each day, weight loss and increased rest. It is highly recommended that any changes in your treatment should be discussed with your Medical Practitioner.
