The onset of diabetes symptoms is varied, depending on its particular type. Most Type 2 diabetes cases have a slow onset, taking years before the signs start to appear. However, in Type 1 cases, particularly in children, the symptoms may appear rapidly, taking only months or even weeks.

The most obvious signs of diabetes include the following:

• Frequent thirst (polydipsia)

• Constant urination (polyuria)

• Rapid loss of weight

• Unusual hunger

• Obvious weakness and fatigue

I’m doing some research for something about diabetes type one, and i was wondering what are the things that can happen, and does it happen if you are using insulin and eating right? If you have any info or web sites that i can check out, please let me know. Thanks!

Both my husband and sister in law have type 1 diabetes. My husband develop type 1 diabetes when he was 5 years old, but his identical twin did not. His younger sister developed type 1 diabetes when she was 12 years old.

How to identify whether it is the first or the second type and which is more dangerous?

Please advice the best ways to control the diabetes if the patient is unable to move by self
A thumbs up for all the answerers for taking pain to answer my question. Thanks you all for the information.

Is it a blood test?

Also what type is more common 1 or 2?

And lastly i heard people who have diabetes can not have children because it is very risky.

I’m 19, I’m worried I may have diabetes and I don’t have health coverage/insurance so I can’t go see a doctor. Is there a cheap way to check if you have it without having to go see a doctor?
Thanks for the tips guys but I don’t know anyone close to me who has diabetes, none of my friends got it. I don’t think anyone in my family has it so I can’t go to them for help. I’m not overweight either.

Lately I’ve found myself urinating quite often, very thristy, and feeling very nauseated when I have eaten something in a few hours. Could this possibly be symptoms of diabetes?

Diabetes does run in the family and I just found out that two more relatives were diagnosed. They are much older though, I’m only 23. I’m hoping that I am just being paranoid.

What are the symptoms and what can I do to make sure I don’t get them if at all possible?

It runs in my family, and I’ve already inherited anemia from my grandma, and hypothyroidism, so I’m pretty much waiting on the diabetes. Symptoms I should watch out for?

In other words, is it likely to have prediabetes or diabetes if nobody in your family has it?
While I’m at it, is prediabetes/diabetes common in teenagers?
