Symptoms Of Diabetes
The symptoms of diabetes most of the time begin gradually, and can be difficult to identify initially. They may include fatigue, sudden weight loss, blurred vision, slow healing of wounds, frequent urination - especially at night, and excessive thirst. When there is extra glucose in the blood, the body gets rid of it through frequent urination. The loss of fluids induces extreme thirst, leading to more frequent urination.
What are the Causes of Diabetes
Since there are different types of diabetes, each type has a unique possible cause. The main two causes of diabetes is the body's failure to produce enough of the insulin hormone, and secondly the body develops a resistance to insulin. Type 1 diabetes is due to decreased insulin production. Type 2 is due to insulin resistance in peripheral tissues. In juvenile diabetes, the cause might probably be a lack of vitamin D.
Importance of Testing in Diabetes
Regular blood glucose testing by people with diabetes is important to help control it, and also prevent long-term complications. Good control of blood glucose levels can prevent or reduce serious complications. Frequent testing can show how changes in diet, exercise, medications or weight are having an effect on a patient's diabetes. Close monitoring of blood glucose levels allows control and timely intervention to prevent diabetic complications.
