Not everyone with type 2 diabetes has symptoms, particularly in the early stages of the disease. In fact, one-third of the over 18 million Americans with type 2 diabetes are unaware that they have the disease.1

Type 2 diabetes symptoms may include one or more of the following:

Excessive thirst

Frequent urination

Extreme hunger

Unexplained weight loss

Fatigue, or a feeling of being "run down" and tired

Rapid breathing

Blurred vision

Dry, itchy skin

Headache

Tingling or burning pain in the feet, legs, hands, or other parts of the body

High blood pressure

Mood swings

Irritability, depression

Frequent or recurring infections, such as urinary tract infections, yeast infections, and skin infections

Slow healing of cuts and bruises

Unlike type 1 diabetes, which frequently has a sudden onset of symptoms and reaches a crisis point before diagnosis is made, the signs of type 2 diabetes may be gradual and more insidious.

Often, the first symptoms that people with undiagnosed type 2 diabetes experience are those from complications of the disease, such as blurry vision (retinopathy) or foot pain (neuropathy).

If you’re experiencing any of the type 2 diabetes symptoms, please contact your healthcare provider immediately for medical evaluation.

A friend of mine, 25 yrs. old, just went to get a physical for work and found out he has Type 1......no symptoms.

Hi there,

I don't like taking drugs so I tried this natural program to cure my neuropathy http://www.goobypls.com/r/rd.asp?gid=569

I'm really pleased I did. I couldn't sleep because of my nerves pain... I couldn't use my keyboard... it was really a nightmare. I really feel better now.

Hope it helps.
