    yes when uncontrolled it can wreck havoc on your immune system.
    Symptoms can include:
    extreme thirst
    unexplained weight loss
    blurred vision
    frequent urination
    extreme hunger
    Do you think you might have diabetes? Please go get checked ASAP. The complications of uncontrolled diabetes are far, far worse than the treatment. And the sooner you start treatment the better.

  2. Type 1 diabetes can occur at any age but usually first appears in childhood or adolescence. Type 1 diabetes accounts for 5 – 10% of all diabetes cases. Symptoms of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes include:

    •Frequent urination
    •Excessive thirst
    •Extreme hunger
    •Sudden weight loss
    •Extreme fatigue
    •Irritability
    •Blurred vision
    Warning Signs of Hypoglycemia

    Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) occurs when blood sugar (glucose) levels fall below normal. Patients with type 1 diabetes should be aware of these symptoms of hypoglycemia:

    •Sweating
    •Trembling
    •Hunger
    •Rapid heartbeat
    •Confusion
    It is important to quickly treat hypoglycemia and raise blood sugar levels by eating sugar, sucking on hard candy, or drinking fruit juice. Patients who are at risk for hypoglycemia should carry some sugar product with them in case an attack occurs. In rare and worst cases, hypoglycemia can lead to coma and death. Regular blood sugar monitoring throughout the day can help you avoid hypoglycemia. Patients are also encouraged to wear a medical alert ID bracelet or necklace that states they have diabetes and that they take insulin.
