Early detection and treatment of diabetes can decrease the risk of developing the complications of diabetes. The following symptoms of diabetes are typical. However, some people with Type 2 diabetes have symptoms so mild that they go unnoticed so it is always best to get your blood sugar levels tested by a medical professional.

1. Urinating often
2. Feeling very thirsty
3. Feeling very hungry – even though you are eating
4. Extreme fatigue
5. Blurry vision
6. Cuts/bruises that are slow to heal
7. Weight loss – even though you are eating more (type 1)
8. Tingling, pain, or numbness in the hands/feet (type 2)
