  2. syl c. - There are 3 main warning signs that must be heeded; you must listen what your body is saying because it can save your life. The first critical warning sign is thirst. The person with high blood sugar may have a constant thirst.The body tries to filter the excess sugar from the blood by passing it in water through the kidneys.

    The next warning sign is hunger. Being hungry frequently stems from the fact that a person with diabetes cannot utilize sugar well as an energy source within cells. The sugar is circulating in the blood, but the cells can't absorb it to use it as a fuel. This is why even after a meal a diabetic can again be quickly hungry. .

    Frequently urinating is another diabetes warning sign. The kidneys are passing urine out the body to get rid of the sugar. The body continually is dumping the sugar out causing the diabetic to have to urinate often. It is amazing how the body fights to balance back the blood sugar.

    If you are getting the diabetes warning signs your body is sending you signals you should not ignore.

    See your doctor and obtain a simple blood glucose test in order to obtain a definitive diagnosis. Seeking diagnosis/treatment early is recommended in order to avoid complications. Diet and exercise, medications, if needed, is essential.

    Hope this helps.
