Answer:
Some symptoms of diabetes include:Frequent urination
Excessive thirst
Extreme hunger
Unusual weight loss
Increased fatigue
Irritability
Blurry vision
Of you have one or more of these symptoms, or aer concerned at all that you might have diabetes, see your doctor right away. Your doctor can perform teh necessary testing (typically a Glucose Tolerance Test, which will show how your body metabolizes glucose; a Hemoglobin A1c, which will indicate your average glucose level over the past few months; and a Serum Glucose test, which will show your glucose level at the time of testing), and prescribe the necessary treatment. A Serum glucose test (aka a Blood Sugar TEst) can be done at home with a glucose monitor and strips, but this alone is not a truly reliable diagnostic tool by itself, as your glucose level in a random test can be affected by many variables (stress, what and when you last ate, etc.). A high reading can indicate suspicion of diabetes, but the testing done by the doctor will diagnose the problem. Hope this helps!

You need to see a doc if you think you may have diabetes. There is no reliable way to do this at home.

only a blood test by your doctor will tell you for sure.There are some things which occur commonly in diabetics (you pee and drink a lot) but these things may also be caused by other things, not necessarily a disease. Have you noticed musty odor from your mouth? (also common in diabetics)
lightheadedness, fatigue - also very non specific
You should see a doctor, b/c many people find out that they have diabetes after they loose consciousness and are brought to the emergency room - very bad and dangerous way to learn that you're a diabetic

See a physician. More than likely he'll ask you to do a 12 hour fast, after which the lab tech will take a blood sample. If the glucose level in your blood is higher than a certain level, the physician will go from there. Good luck.

You can purchase Glucose meter and test your blood sugar yourself.
A range of 4 to 7 mmol/l (72 to 126 mg/dl) before a meal is normal.
A level of %26lt; 10 mmol/l (180 mg/dl) 90 minutes after a meal is normal.
A range of 7 to 8 mmol/l (126 to 144 mg/dl) at bedtime is normal.
After a 12 hour fast, a range of 3.9 to 6.5 mmol/l (70.2 to 117 mg/dl) is normal. (a level of 6.7 to 7 mmol/l (120.6 to 126 mg/dl) is considered a sign of prediabetes)
Please see the web pages for more details on Glucometer and Glucose test.

If you have diabetes that is untreated there would be an elevated level of sugar/glucose in your blood. A blood test ordered by your doctor could determine the amount of sugar in your blood at any point in time. Normally unless the sugar is greatly elevated the doctor would also ask you to take a glucose tolerance test.
If it is type I diabetes there would likely be be ketones in the urine. This occurs because if the body cannot metabolize the glucose from food it will burn fat from the body and produce glucose as well as toxins as a result.
Some times a person has an elevated blood sugar but doesn't have diabetes... yet! This is called Glucose intolerance. The term prediabetes is not accepted medically. If a person has glucose intolerance he is at higher risk for developing diabetes but can change things regarding the types, frequency, and amount of food he/she eats as well as exercise regularly and lose weight if overweight. All these things can prevent or postpone the onset of diabetes. If you do have diabetes you are not alone. By 2020 it is estimated that 25% of the population of Canada will have diabetes. Only half of them will actually know it.

The best and most accurate way is to see a doctor and have the proper blood work done. Diabetes is not a disease you should self diagnose or self medicate. Your health and life are too important to not take care of, so please see yor doctor.

Here's some general information about DIABETES--Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) and other symptoms. The World Health Organization recognizes three main forms of diabetes: type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes (occurring during pregnancy),[1] which have similar signs, symptoms, and consequences, but different causes and population distributions. Type 1 is usually due to autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic beta cells which produce insulin. Type 2 is characterized by tissue-wide insulin resistance and varies widely; it sometimes progresses to loss of beta cell function. Gestational diabetes is similar to type 2 diabetes, in that it involves insulin resistance; the hormones of pregnancy cause insulin resistance in those women genetically predisposed to developing this condition.
Early symptoms are related to hyperglycemia and include polydipsia (excessive thirst), polyphagia (excessive hunger and abnormally large intake of solids by mouth), and polyuria (excessive urination). Later complications include vascular disease, peripheral neuropathy, and predisposition to infection. Diagnosis is by measuring plasma glucose (blood sugar). Treatment is diet, exercise, and drugs that reduce glucose levels, including insulin and oral antihyperglycemic drugs. Prognosis varies with degree of glucose control. Hyperglycemia is high blood glucose. Symptoms are--
Frequent urination
Excessive thirst
Extreme hunger
Unusual weight loss
Increased fatigue
Irritability
Blurry vision
Hypoglycemia is low blood glucose. Symptoms are--
Sweating and palpitations
Pale skin
Hunger - to the extreme
Trembling
Irritability
Anxiety/aggression
Poor concentration
Feelings of faintness/dizziness
Loss of consciousness
Death
Normal blood glucose ranges from 70-110. Anything below 70...hypo..anything above 110..hyper.
A range of 4 to 7 mmol/l (72 to 126 mg/dl) before a meal is normal.
A level of %26lt; 10 mmol/l (180 mg/dl) 90 minutes after a meal is normal.
A range of 7 to 8 mmol/l (126 to 144 mg/dl) at bedtime is normal.In the US, about 90% of diabetics are type II and 10% are type I.
And here's what you can do about it--According to recent studies conducted by the Pritikin Longevity Center, diabetes starts from too much fat in the diet and insufficient exercise, not malfunction of the pancreas as previously thought. The pancreas continues to produce insulin when you have diabetes but the body becomes insulin resistant. Research has shown that over 90% of diabetes cases can be TOTALLY CORRECTED with diet and exercise. That means that you don't have to have limbs removed due to diabetes-induced gangrene. You don't have to go blind or suffer cardiovascular abnormalities because of diabetes. You can actually REVERSE some of these conditions with diet (nutrition, not weight loss) and exercise, and the removal of parasites and candida.Watch the 8-minute non-profit video http://www.rawfor30days.com/view.html... , about diabetes diet.
Best of luck.

There are several warning signs to look out for which include increased thirst, can't get enough to eat, frequent urination and many others. If you think that you may have this, then you need to see a medical professional and let them do the GTT, glucose tolerance test on you and this will let them have an accurate diagnosis of Diabetes or not, this test, you will have to do without having had anything to eat or drink after midnight the night befor the lab is done. They will either do a 1-hour or a 3-hour just depending on the symptoms or feelings that you are experienciing when you go. Diabetes is a serious disease and if you think that you have it, please go to your doctor and get tested. Better safe than sorry, and you might not have it at all.
