Avatar n tn It can lead to type 2 diabetes, and many people do suffer from hypoglycemia before developing type 2 diabetes. Other people never develop type 2 diabetes at all, but remain hypoglycemic. Your best actions are to do what you can to prevent the lows while also doing what you can to prevent the onset of type 2 diabetes.
Tbd Besides being overweight which is the most common reason, there's a lot of other reasons that may cause diabetes type 2. Another thing is age, the older you get, the chance are bigger you can get diabetes. I know it's already written, but I'll write it again, if you want to prevent it you should, of course, pay attention to nutrition and your eating habits in general.

Avatar n tn Some people are able to control Type 2 diabetes with losing and maintaining healthy weight, lowering carb intake and regular exercise. Some are not, and need medication. It is impossible to answer your question because every diabetic is different and it would depend on how high your numbers were to begin with and what you ate and did. Serious consequences (complications) from diabetes don't occur in 24 hours, they occur over time spent at high numbers.
Avatar n tn your lucky your headache goes away with advil if you do have diabetes, Im a Type 2 Diabetic, when i was diagnosed i was drinking pry about 2 gallons of water a day and i was still thirsty, and because of that i was going to the bathroom every 2 hours sometimes every hour.
Avatar n tn First of all Type 2 diabetes does run in the family. I had gestational diabetes in two of my pregnancies. Lately but not everysingle day however more often now I am continuously feeling nausiated, at times a headache or mild diziness with it. At times I go to the toilet feeling as if I am going to vomit (but I dont). I am absolutely not pregnant (I had a tubal ligation). there are times when I get shaky or irritable or feel a head rush without food. I am 5'4" inches tall.
Avatar n tn im worried i might have type 2 diabetes as i have rapidly decreasing eyesight - every time i go for my six month eyetest i have to have new glasses/contacts as my eyesight has decreased (im seeing a specialist aswell about this), i have started needing to urinate quite alot and most nights have to get out of bed even though this never used to be a problem. mostly though if i dont snack every say 2 hours i start to feel weak, sick and cant concerntrate. do you think i should be tested?
Avatar f tn The symptoms are quickly relieved once the diabetes is treated and under control. In Type 2 diabetes the signs and symptoms may not be so obvious, as the condition develops slowly over a period of years and may only be picked up in a routine medical check up. Symptoms are quickly relieved once diabetes is treated and under control.
Avatar m tn 54 y.o. male w/ history of heart disease and type 2 diabetes. I beat an enlarged heart and type 2 diabetes at age 48 thru diet and exercise. In the last 6 months, old habits returned. Eating poorly and inactive. Started working out again about new year and eating better. Last night left side went numb suddenly, lasted about 20 minutes. Went away completely. Came back in the middle of the night. Gets stronger and weaker. If diabetes, not likely to be entire side of body.
Avatar n tn I am not a doctor, but I know enough to say that a 5-year-old who is not overweight is more-than-extremely-unlikely to have type 2. And the amount of sugar he eats will not cause diabetes. Type 1 results from a combination of genetics and getting some sort of virus that triggers the body's antibodies to attack the pancreas. Diet and body weight have no impact on whether this happens or not, as least as far as modern medicine knows.
Avatar f tn What are the symptoms of Type 1 Diabetes? I have a child who is extremely tired and thirsty all the time. Should I have him checked for diabetes?

Avatar n tn I am not a physician, but a mom of a type one and the daughter of a type 2. In a type one diabetic commonly called Juvenile diabetes( because it usually is diagnoses in children , but I know people that were in they 30's and 40's and were diagnosed) is when the body stop s producing insulin. Type 2 diabetics your body still produces insulin, but cannot use it properly use the insulin without help of medication.
Avatar n tn Although there's no cure for type 2 diabetes, studies show it's possible for some people to reverse it. Through diet changes and weight loss, you may be able to reach and hold normal blood sugar levels without medication. This doesn't mean you're completely cured. Type 2 diabetes is an ongoing disease.
Avatar n tn I am going to see my doctor next week and will discuss the options for Testesterone injection. In addition to the blood tests, I also feel some symptoms of arthritis like condition in my fingers and get tired very quickly. I would like to know what folks think on this forum with regards to my treatment options, Should I go on medication for Diabetes or just treat the low T and control the diabetes with diet alone? I am only 38 and have very active life/marriage.
Avatar n tn She also seems hungry all the time.Could she possibly be developing type 2 diabetes? Do the symptoms of diabetes fluctuate at the onset accounting for the on/off of her symptoms?Could water retention from the extra fluids account for the rapid weight gain?She is 52 pounds and approx. 41 inches tall,breastfed until 14 months of age. Is it even possible at her age to get type 2?I assumed it couldn't be type 1 because of weight gain rather than loss.

Avatar f tn It is not really possible to make a list of foods to eat and not eat because we are all different. But a diet of protein and lots of fresh vegies, small amounts of fruit and small amounts of carbs should do best.
