Diabetes Symptoms

Many people with type 2 diabetes never show any signs. But some people do show symptoms, which are caused by high blood sugar. The most common symptoms of type 2 diabetes are:


* Greater need to urinate
* Frequent hunger or thirst
* Weight loss
* Blurred vision
* Tingling/numbness in hands or feet
* Feeling tired
* Very dry skin
* Slow-healing sores
* Infections

Are You in Control

Some of these issues may seem minor, but, with time, they can lead to much more serious complications. If you manage your blood sugar now, though, you may reduce your risk of complications from diabetes later.

Even when you’re doing your best to manage your diabetes, your blood sugar can get extremely high or too low. Know the symptoms of high and low blood sugar and what to do about them.
