Early signs of diabetes
1. What is diabetes?
Diabetes mellitus (also known as diabetes) is a heterogeneous metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood sugar levels in the body. The cause is usually due to unstable insulin levels in the body (maybe deficient or even excess). If you have diabetes, and you control your blood sugar and regularly monitor it well, then surely your sugar level is within a safe range, almost like a normal person.
Based on the characteristics and course of the disease, there are two types of diabetes: type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, secondary diabetes and gestational diabetes.
2. Diabetes warning signs
Most of the early symptoms of diabetes are higher than normal blood glucose levels. The warning signs of diabetes can range from very mild to no symptoms at all. Some people don't realize they have a serious illness or complications before they find out.
2.1. Symptoms of type 1 diabetes
The disease progresses very quickly, with symptoms often occurring rapidly over several days or weeks. Often there is a typical 4 multiple syndrome.
Hunger and fatigue: Your body converts the food you eat into glucose that your cells use for energy. But your cells need insulin to absorb glucose. If your body doesn't make enough or any insulin, or if your cells are resistant to the insulin your body makes, glucose can't get into them and you don't have energy. This can make you hungrier and more tired than usual.
Urinating more often and thirsting more: The average person has to urinate four to seven times in 24 hours, but people with diabetes due to high blood sugar can pass a lot more than usual. Why is it like that? Normally your body reabsorbs glucose as it passes through your kidneys. But when diabetes pushes your blood sugar high, your kidneys may not be able to bring it all back. This causes the body to make more urine and to lose water. The result: You'll have to go more often. You can also go out more. Because you p*e a lot, you may be very thirsty. As you drink more, you will also p*e more.
Dry mouth, extreme thirst, and itchy skin: Because your body is using fluid to urinate, there's less moisture for other things. You may become dehydrated, and your mouth may feel dry. Dry skin can make you itch.
A lot of weight loss: Although the patient eats a lot, he loses a lot of weight.
Type 2 diabetes
An early sign of people with diabetes is often feeling dry mouth
Reduced vision: Changing fluid levels in your body can cause the lenses in your eyes to swell, causing blurred vision and reduced vision.
