1!. Extreme thirst-I drank a lot of water, milk, pop, juice, and kool aid!. A lot of times I would drink a glass of milk before I would even start to eat!. I would usually drink around 2 16oz glasses with every meal and I would put a big sports bottle full of water on my nightstand for the night!.
2!. Frequent urination- I'd go to the bathroom every hour a lot of times and I'd go 4-6 times during the night (between the hours of 11pm and 7am)!. After I'd go to the bathroom at night, I'd go right to the fridge to drink some cold water!.
3!.Loss of appetite-I know extreme hunger is a symptom, but I don't remember ever having that!.
4!. Tiredness-I'd want to sleep all the time!. I could not get rid of the fatigue no matter how long I'd sleep!.
5!. Unexplained weightloss-I don't remember exactly when I started showing symptoms, but I know I had the symptoms for at least a month!. In that time I lost about 40lbs!.
6!. Blurred vision- I actually went to the eye doctor when this happened and I ended getting glasses!. After I was diagnosed, and my blood sugar was back to normal, my vision went back to normal and I didn't need the glasses!. That was the first and last time I went to that doctor!.
My blood sugar was 630mg/dl when I was diagnosed and now I'm taking 4-6 shots a day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

not personally, but my dad suffers!. when you have it you cannot personally tell any differences in your body!. when my dad hasn't eaten enough carbs or has eaten too many he acts like a completely different person and has no idea he's doing it!. he often gets really sleepy and mumbles his words together!. sometimes he even gets kinda scary!. because he cannot tell the difference its hard to get him to understand when he needs to take him medication, cause he thinks he is fine when he isnt!. Its a horrible disease!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
