Q. Ive had some of the symptoms of diabetes for a couple of years now but since the begging of the year they have gotten worse and new symptoms have appeared. Most people have told me this is down to stress (which could be correct as it has been a stressful time) Also for about 2 or 3 years I didnt eat lunch and would just snack chocolate and sweets.I am also underweight.
A. It is shocking that more than half a million people are going about their daily lives unaware they have a condition that puts them at greater risk of devastating complications. Some people can go undiagnosed for up to 12 years and around half of people with Type 2 diabetes are already showing signs of complications when they are diagnosed, due to their diagnosis being later than it should be. This is a tragedy as diabetes is a manageable condition and many people live full and healthy lives. The sooner people are diagnosed, the sooner they can start treating their condition and taking control of their lives.
Please get checked so you can take control of your life if you are a diabetic. Good luck.

What are the signs of diabetes and when should I be tested?
Q. Lately I've found myself urinating quite oftem, very thristy, and feeling very nauseated when I have eaten something in a few hours. Could this possibly be symptons of diabetes?
Diabetes does run in the family and I just found out that two more realitives 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?

A. Go get checked if there is any doubt at all. Here are a list of symptoms. Some people don't have any symptoms, and some people have symptoms not listed here.
Constant thirst
Frequent urination
Constant hunger
Unexplained weight gain or loss
Blurry vision
Slow healing wounds
Reoccurring yeast infection in women, itching penis in men
Frequent boils
Irritability
Headaches
Tingling sensation in arms,hands,feet or legs
Leg cramps
Watch your diet, and get daily exercise. You have a risk factor since it is in your family. Taking care of yourself now can keep diabetes at bay for awhile, but there is no way to actually prevent it. It does not matter if you are overweight or not. Diabetes causes the weight gain in many people in a lot of cases. 51% of type 2 diabetics have never been over weight and have a normal diet. Type 1 can be diagnosed from infancy to around age 30. This is the type that is insulin dependent. Type 2 is usually diagnosed after the age of 30 and is treated with oral med, insulin or both. Some people can control it for many years by diet and exercise, but it usually requires medication in later years. Type 2 is becoming more prevelant recently in grade school age kids over the last few years, and they expect a great rise in the number of people that develop it. Certain drugs, (sterioids,
cortisterioids, some blood pressure medications, certain drugs used in cancer treatment, are among some of the drugs) disease that affects the pancreas, and injury to the pancreas can also lead to or contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes. There is no cure for type 2 or type 1 except pancreas transplant.

Diabetes causing strange pain in the hand?
Q. My friends father has diabetes and sometimes he is not able to raise his hand. What does this mean? And what could be the remedies?
A. That means that diabetes has started to negatively affect his nerves (early sign of neuropathy). The best thing he should do is to control his blood sugar and keep them within the normal range.
Another option could be his work (if he is working too much in front of computer or writing with hands) that will affect his hand.
Another option is arthritis; sometimes arthritis affect small junctions (like the hand) and cannot move it.
