Diabetes - What Symptoms to Look for

By Vania Kraft


Identifying the primary signs of diabetes can help you avoid complications with the disease. Unfortunately, many of the diabetes symptoms that present themselves outside of the body are also symptoms of other disorders.

Diabetes suffers often complain of more infections than average healthy people. This is because people who have diabetes have a weaker immune system, especially when the disease hasn't yet been diagnosed or treated. Many report urinary and skin infections among the most annoying of infections in diabetics. Your doctor should test for pancreatic function to see if your blood sugar levels are where they need to be especially if you are experiencing these types of infections.

Excessive thirst is one of the diabetes symptoms that is very widely recognized. Thanks to books in which popular characters talk about their diabetes diagnosis, most people equate excessive thirst with diabetes. Every individual becomes thirsty. Excessive thirst is when, even if you are drinking tons of water - more than recommended daily amount (64 ounces) you still think you could be "dying" of thirst. Nothing can be done about this thirst. If you undergo thirst like this, you should discuss it with your medical professional. Dehydration is a possibility. Chances are that is it something that is messing with your potassium level (which is one of the most noticeable symptoms of diabetes, also.

This is due to your body's capability of sending in healing white blood cells and reconstructing the skin being affected by a decrease of sugar and insulin in the blood. If you have observed that you've been having difficulty healing, in comparison to the past, you may need to talk to your medical professional. This is almost always a manifestation of an urgent matter.

The symptoms of diabetes will likely be different for you than they are for other people. It all depends on the severity of the disease and how far along it is in your body. There are a few people who will never show a symptom. Others might experience all of the common symptoms of the disease. Why it's happening in the first place is always the first line of defense. If it's control of the disease you seek you must first recognize the symptoms.
