In today's stressful environment and modern lifestyle changes, diabetes is on the rise today.
Let's take a look at some of the symptoms associated with Diabetes.
Frequent urination
When you suffer from diabetes, your body is unable to break food down into sugar. So, you tend to have more sugar in your bloodstream. The body flushes it out through urine and hence you feel the need to urinate more.
Excessive Thirst
Of course, you would feel thirsty because you are urinating more. People try to quench their thirst by drinking more juices and sodas which again increases the sugar content, which again leads to excessive urination.
Weight Loss
This sounds unbelievable, but it is possible. You could lose weight due to the excessive urination or because you don't absorb all the calories from the sugar in your blood. Once you manage your diabetes and keep your sugar control in check you could gain some weight.
Increased hunger
When you have high blood sugar, your body has a problem with regulating the glucose and this could make you crave for carbs or sugar.
Blurry vision
Blurry vision is due to glucose build up in the eye. Once your sugar is stabilized you won't feel it.
Wounds take long to heal
Due to high sugar levels your immune system doesn't work well and hence wounds and cuts take long to heal.
Fatigue
Yes, with diabetes you would feel sluggish and tired. It is because the food your eating for energy is not broken down and hence fatigue sets in.
