The first signs and symptoms of diabetes can vary depending on the type of diabetes, but some common signs and symptoms can include:

Frequent Urination

People with diabetes tend to urinate more than usual, especially at night. This occurs because high blood sugar levels cause the kidneys to work overtime, and the body has to get rid of the extra sugar in the urine.

Increased Thirst

Diabetics often become very thirsty due to the body's inability to absorb glucose properly and adequately hydrate itself.

Unexplained Weight Loss

Weight loss can occur due to the body's inability to properly absorb glucose for energy. As a result, the body begins to break down fat and muscle for energy.

Extreme Hunger

People with diabetes may experience extreme hunger due to the body's inability to properly absorb glucose for energy. As a result, the body may crave more food in order to make up for the energy it is not getting.

Fatigue

Fatigue is a common symptom of diabetes, due to the body's inability to properly absorb glucose and the extra work the body has to do to get rid of the extra sugar in the urine.

Blurred Vision

Blurred vision is a common symptom of diabetes, caused by high levels of sugar in the blood, which can cause the lens of the eye to swell.

Slow-Healing Wounds

High blood sugar levels can slow the healing process of wounds and sores.

The first sign of diabetes problems is often excessive thirst and frequent urination. These symptoms can be caused by high levels of glucose in the blood, which the body tries to flush out by increasing urination. Other signs may include unexplained weight loss, increased hunger, fatigue and irritability, and blurred vision. If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to see a doctor to have your blood sugar levels checked.

The first sign of diabetes problems is often an increase in thirst and urination. People with diabetes may find that they are constantly thirsty, and they may also need to urinate more often than usual. This is because the body is producing more urine in order to cope with the excess glucose in the blood caused by diabetes. Other signs of diabetes problems include increased hunger, weight loss, fatigue, and blurred vision. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to speak to your doctor as soon as possible.
