Diabetes Symptoms

Diabetes Symptoms

All too often we get sick but ignore the symptoms we may be

feeling, shrugging them off to a cold, stress from work, or

just not feeling well.


There are certain symptoms that shouldn’t be ignored if

they develop. These symptoms could lead to blindness,

amputation of limbs, coma or even death.


Symptoms of type 1 diabetes often come on suddenly and are

severely dramatic. The extra stress of diabetes can lead to

something called diabetic ketoacidosis.


Symptoms of ketoacidosis may include nausea and vomiting,

which may also lead to dehydration and serious problems

with the blood levels of potassium. This could lead to a

diabetic coma and ultimately death.


Other symptoms of diabetes may include extreme fatigue. We

all get tired at times, but diabetes triggers a more severe

fatigue than normal.


People with diabetes also experience unexplained weight

loss. This is because they are unable to process many of

the calories they consume. Losing sugar and water in the

urine also contributes to the weight loss.


Extreme thirst is another symptom of diabetes. Diabetes

develops high blood sugar levels and the body tries to

compensate by diluting the blood, which translates to our

brain that we are thirsty.


With this is also excessive urination. It is another way

our bodies have of getting rid of the extra sugar in our

system. But this can also lead to dehydration.


One of the hardest symptoms to deal with is poor wound

healing. Wounds heal slowly, if at all when the carrier has

diabetes. This along with infections that are not easily

remedied can attribute to ulcers and loss of limbs.
