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