description of diabetes?

Diabetes is defined as an absolute (Type I) or relative (Type II) lack of insulin. The body uses insulin to push glucose into cells. Glucose is the cells' energy source. Without glucose, the cells are unable to get energy, therefore resulting in organ failure and other complications. Diabetes is characterized by the existence of glucose in the urine (the reason Diabetes mellitus translates into "sweet urine."

Three most common signs of Diabetes:

-Constant thirst (due to excessive glucose in the urine. Urine must be diluted with water.)

-Constant hunger (due to cells' lack of energy)

-Polyuria (constant urination. due to excess consumption of water)

Type I is usually diagnosed in childhood. This is due to the genetic component.

Type II is usually diagnosed later in life. This is due to the relation to lifestyle choices. Obesity is a major risk factor for this disease.

Actually the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 is a bit more than what has been posted. They are not the same disease and really should have different names to avoid confusion.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease. The body’s immune system attacks what it sees to be a threat. In Type 1 diabetes the body mistakenly thinks it’s pancreas islet cells are invaders and it begins attacking them. We don’t know exactly what causes this to happen but there seems to be a strong case for viral and environmental factors. Newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes typically have not lost ALL islet cells yet and thus still have some pancreas function but not enough to meet their insulin needs.

In type 2 diabetes the problem isn't that there’s not enough insulin being produced or that islet cells have been destroyed (there are no islet antibodies present in type 2 diabetics) but that the insulin has become ineffective at controlling the body’s metabolism. This is called insulin resistance and unfortunately it is most often related to being overweight and inactive (though it can also be simply hereditary and not lifestyle related).

Type 2 diabetes can almost always be reversed with strict diet and exercise. Type 1 has no cure.

Type 1 diabetes is for the most part, child onset. Something is not right, when a baby is born. The child's body does not make insulin. Thus they have to take insulin shots. Type 2 is adult onset. This is when your body has a hard time, using the insulin it makes. ( I'm type 2.) I take pills that help my body, use the insulin it makes. Yes I am over weight, by about 60 lbs.

Type 1 Diabetes is characterized by the FULL FAILURE of the pancreas to produce insulin. These patients need unsulin injections for the rest of their lives.

Type 2 Diabetes is characterized by a PARTIAL FAILURE of the pancreas, usually due to obesity. These patients can often control the disease by watching their diet and losing weight.

In either case, without insulin the sugar in the blood can not get into the cells. This make you very tired. In severe cases your body thinks it is starving to death, and then it tries to "eat itself". This is VERY serious, and needs hospitalization immediately.

My brother was recently diagnosed with Type II diabetes. His symptoms were:

excessive thirst

excessive urination

very tired

weight loss

I believe that's it. Try to google diabetes also. Good luck.

Some people who are diagnosed with diabetes haven't experienced any diabetes symptoms ? their diabetes was diagnosed from the results of a simple blood test.

Many people, however, may notice one or more of the following diabetes warning signs:

Urinating frequently. Since your kidneys must remove the excess glucose from your blood, it ends up in your urine, which can cause more frequent urination with more volume.

Increased thirst. When you lose an increased amount of fluid through frequent urination, you may become dehydrated and thirsty. You?ll notice that you are drinking more fluids to stay hydrated.

Excessive hunger. You may notice that you feel hungry all the time. Your body is unable to use the glucose you have and is trying to tell you it needs more fuel.

Unexplained weight loss. Since your body is unable to use your blood glucose effectively, it begins to break down your energy stores such as fat, which can result in weight loss or a failure to gain weight in growing children. This can happen even though you are hungry and eating more.

Fatigue. Feeling tired is a common diabetes symptom because your body cannot convert the glucose in your blood into usable energy.

Irritable mood. Along with hunger and fatigue, it is not uncommon to feel irritable when you have diabetes.

Blurred vision. High blood glucose levels can cause you to temporarily experience blurred vision.
