Tiredness
and Lack of Energy
If you feel tired a lot, even when you
have eaten
and slept properly, this can be a sign that the insulin needed in your
cells is simply not being produced by the body as it should. As a
result, the cells do not have the energy they need, and this causes you
to feel fatigued physically and mentally drained.
Extremities Feel Numb or Tingly
If your hands, feet, or legs feel this
way, this is
a sign of neuropathy which results from excessive glucose in the
bloodstream. This has a detrimental effect on the nervous system and
extremities, but can be reversed to some degree when glucose levels are
controlled and returned to a balanced state.
Always Thirsty
Does it seem like no matter how much
water you
drink you can’t quench your thirst? Have you been drinking a
lot of water and urinating often? The reason for this may be that your
body is taking the water from your blood and expelling it from your
body at an unhealthy rate, causing an increased need to replenish the
lost water in the body.
Vision Issues
If you have been noticing a decrease in
vision,
this can be related again to high glucose levels in your body. If
things seem blurry or strained or your eyes feel dry and irritated,
these may be symptoms of diabetes. Only a doctor and vision specialist
can help you discern what the cause may be. Make an appointment with
both, as soon as possible.
Dry Skin

If
your skin is dry, itchy and flaky, this too
could be a sign of sugar levels being off in the body. Do you find
yourself applying lotion more often than normal? Do you feel itches all
over your skin and feel that they can’t be scratched and are
persistent? See a doctor right away to see if this might be related to
a blood sugar imbalance.
Signs and Diagnoses
There
are many signs and diagnoses that are possible. The best way to know
for sure what is going on is to not assume that you know, and not
assume that one doctor knows. Always see a doctor and always get a
second or third opinion before you undergo treatments. Misdiagnosis can
cause issues to go untreated and can even cause death in certain
situations.
As far as treatments, this will depend on the
severity of your situation. If it is determined that you have a glucose
related illness, do not feel that this is the end of the world. One
treatment for mild cases includes simple diet changes. You can start
this right now even before you make it in to see the doctor (but do not
use diet changes as an alternative to being seen by a physician!).
In
more serious cases, insulin levels will need to
be maintained and there are treatments for this.They are covered by
most Medicare, Medicaid and
insurances.
If you think you or someone you know might have
signs of diabetes, hypoglycemia or any illness for that matter,
see a
doctor (or two or three), get tested and get treated. Your family will
thank you. Don't let it get out of control.Act
before it’s
too late!
