Early diabetes signs can be elusive or seemingly benign ? if one has them at all. One could have diabetes for long period or even for years and not have any diabetes symptoms. Understanding potential diabetes symptoms can take to early diagnosing and treatment ? and a lifetime of better health.

Symptoms Excessive thirst and increased urination: If you find you are drinking more water and urinating more the usual it could be a symptom of diabetes. When someone has diabetes, extra sugar (glucose) can builds up in the blood.

The kidneys are forced to do over job to filter out and take in the extra sugar. If the kidneys can’t do the job, the extra sugar is passed into the urine along with liquids taken from the tissues. This stimulates more often urination, which may leave dried up. As one drinks more liquids to slake the thirst, one will pee even more.

Exhaustion: A person with diabetes may feel extremely tired and worn out. Lots of fundamentals can add to this. They are drying up from raised urination and the body’s unfitness to work properly, since taking sugar for energy is ineffective.

Weight Variation: Loosing weight easily is also a possible diabetes symptoms. When you lose sugar by urination, you lose calories.

Also, if the diabetes stops the sugar from getting to the cells it could cause constant hungriness. The combined outcome is possible weight loss, especially if you have type 1 diabetes.

Blurred vision: If there?s a high content of blood sugar it takes liquid from the tissues, including the lenses of the eyes. This can harm the ability to focus. Left untreated, this could make new blood vessels in the eye as well as cause damage to the old ones. For a few people this doesn?t affect their vision. But could in fact advance unobserved, which will lead to blindness. This is a type 2 diabetes symptom.

Slow-healing sores or frequent infections: People with diabetes have found that contagions appear more usually. There has not been enough evidence to prove this is true or tell us why it is happening. It could be that higher amount of blood sugar spoil the body’s natural curing process and the ability to battle contagions. Contagions on the bladder or around the vagina are particularly common.

Tingling hands and feet: Extra sugar in the blood can also cause injury to the nerves. You may feel a prickling sensation and loss of sense in the hands as well as feet, you could also feel a burning sensation in the arms, hands, legs and feet.
