i’ve heard that you should get checked for diabetes if any of these things are happening :
Extreme thirst
Extreme hunger
Frequent *********
Sores or bruises that heal slowly
Dry, itchy skin
Unexplained weight loss
Blurry vision that changes from day to day
Unusual tiredness or drowsiness
Tingling or numbness in the hands or feet
Frequent or recurring skin, gum, bladder or vaginal yeast infections

well, i’ve been pretty thirsty lately cause my mouth keeps getting a bit dry. i’ve been very tired – i’ve been going to bed very late, but i’m getting around 13 hours sleep, and i’m always hungry even after big meals, i’m full for about 20 minutes to an hour, than i find myself searching for food. Should i check if i have diabetes? you need a blood test, do they hurt?

justr asked:


I discovered I am diabetic (type 2) nearly 3 years ago after seeing my doctor about severe tingling and numbness in my left foot. We think we (luckily) caught the diabetes early, and I can control glucose levels well with pills and diet/exercise (lifestyle) changes. That said, the tingling and numbness has remaining at the same level over the last few years, not getting worse or better.
It is a bit puzzling (to me and my doctor) as diabetic neuropathy usually is distributed evenly between both feet and/or hands… and mine was and is still highly focused in one foot.

I’ve been to a neurologist on my doctor’s advice and after some testing, and two CAT scans, over a number of visits he confirms this neuropathy, but is at somewhat of a loss for a cause. His best guess is that an old injury may have led to this condition… as an aside, I did play football in college and did have a fairly severe ankle sprain on this foot .
I’m curious if anyone can relate?
Thanks
