DIABETES SYMPTOMS There are numerous signs that alert an individual that they may be suffering from diabetes. Common diabetes symptoms may occur in bulk or a patient may exhibit only a few. Whatever the case may be, when any of the following diabetes symptoms reveal themselves, a person should contact their physician Type 1 diabetes The onset of type 1 diabetes is usually sudden and dramatic and can include symptoms such as: Abnormal thirst and a dry mouth Frequent urination Extreme tiredness/lack of energy Sudden weight loss Slow-healing wounds Recurrent infections Blurred vision

Type 2 diabetes The same symptoms that are listed above can also affect people with type 2 diabetes, but they are usually less obvious. The onset of type 2 diabetes is gradual and therefore hard to detect. Indeed, some people with type 2 diabetes show no obvious symptoms early on. These people are often diagnosed several years later, when various complications are already present. If you think someone you love might have diabetes have them consult a healthcare professional.
