Answers:

well I have been Type I Diabetic for almost 30 years and the main symptoms are excessive thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, any cuts that dont heal promptly, blurred vision, should actually have weight loss, ( as ur body doesnt use glucose efffectively and burns excess fat as fuel),.......on the swollen ankles,..not sure but that sounds like "edema" to me.....but u may wanna call and see if u can get in to ur DR. sooner......good luck with everything,..let me know what happens,
