Avatar f tn I know many patients along with friends and acquaintances family members with over 20-30-40 years of diabetes who never experienced any signs of neuropathy. All these folks manage and control their glucose levels accordingly to prevent neuropathy onset.
Avatar n tn I have a 3 year old. Lately she has been showing signs of diabetes. I took her to the doctor and she tested 180, but she had not ate in over 3 hours. That was about 2 months ago. She is still showing signs, frequent urination (and in a large amount), starved to death, cant get enough to drink, not gaining weight, and just really cranky and fussy. I was at my grandma's house earlier today and she tested my child's blood. It had been over 3 hours since she ate and her sugar was 213.
Avatar n tn I have adopted a two year old son. He is a little short for his age but he is stalky. When we first got him about 6 months ago he would eat anything and everything you put in front of him. Now he has gotten to where he will hardly eat anything but he drinks constantly. It doesn't matter what you give him to drink he will drink all of it and instantly want more. When he is drinking he drink he doesn't just drink it he downs almost the entire drink before sitting it down.
Avatar f tn In Type 1 diabetes the signs and symptoms are usually very obvious and develop very quickly, typically over a few weeks. 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 n tn Chlamydia can also be passed from an infected mother to her baby during vaginal childbirth. Chlamydia can be found in the throats of women and men having oral sex with an infected partner. Any sexually active person can be infected with chlamydia. Because the cervix (opening to the uterus) of teenage girls and young women is not fully matured and is probably more susceptible to infection, they are at particularly high risk for infection if sexually active.
Avatar n tn this runs in myfamily and I found it by searching our family tree roots, often in men in my tree and my father was diagnosed with hardening of arteries, I think when years ago they said ARTHRITIS is WAS NOT.
Avatar n tn Hey everyone! So I called my doctor and talked to him about my symptoms possibly being diabetes. He really doesn't think that diabetes is the case because of the lack of frequent urination. He said that I would be having to get up in the middle of the night at least once to either drink or go to the bathroom, which I don't. I believe that he was talking strictly Type 1, because I guess I am too young for Type 2?
Avatar m tn He should talk to a doctor to find out if it's a sign of diabetes or not. I know the artificial sweetener in diet sodas has other issues of its own. It's plausible-sounding that it could be diabetes or maybe some kind of kidney issue.
Avatar f tn He has none of the symptoms of diabetes insipidus, except peeing frequently. I guess we'll have to go to a doc. Thank you for your help.
Avatar f tn how can I put this lightly..... I can't.... YYYEEESSSS!!!! Birth is something men and the rest of the world give women so much credit for enduring. At a mere 15 though you can definatly expect your birth to the extremely painful. Symptoms run anywhere from back aches, recurring headaches, breast tenderness, nipple soreness, even accelerated heartbeat!!! There are plenty of signs. I also think it would be a good idea to let your mother know so she may direct you to the right dr or midwife.
Avatar n tn No sign of STD due to she just done health blood tests for Visa, no sign of pain to go urine and no leak in penis. Do you think I have fungi? If so, what do you suggest me to use? Other wide, what else do I have? Thank you very much.
Avatar f tn The results once again read the glucose level of 115 which was high since the range used was 65-99. No one in my family has diabetes. I will see my pcp in a few days. Should I be concerned?
Avatar m tn m having sex with the ladies. Also, I havent had morning wood for as long as I can remember now.. Has something changed? Signs of possible ED or actual ED? Thanks in advance.
Avatar m tn There is of course a difference between arousal in a young child and later sexual or erotic arousal in a physically mature person. Is it possible that a child of five can experience physiological arousal? Yes, without doubt. But sexuality and sexual orientation are more complicated than arousal per se. Now, as interviews with homosexual men and women have documented, their awareness of their sexual orientation was evident sometime from a relatively early age - i.e., prior to puberty.
1268359 tn?1271967561 Get tested... When I was your age, 19, I was saying THE SAME EXZACT THING!!! I started getting bumps, my b/f said "he has been tested" he was the only person I was w/... etc. I went to the gyn (I hope you are too being 19 and sexualy active) and I had the HPV virus. 2 out 3 ppl have it... Men are mostly carriers w/ no symptoms, while the women tend to show signs and symptoms. The HPV virus us what can cause cirvical cancer.
Avatar f tn In many instances, diabetes (especially in its early stages) has no signs at all. When blood sugar levels are very high, it may cause frequent urination, excessive thirst, slow-healing wounds, reduced energy, and changes in vision. Best to see your physician and ask for labwork to see if you truly have diabetes or its precursor, called prediabetes.
Avatar m tn s a symptom of diabetes. The same page also mentioned that up to 75% of men with diabetes suffered from erectile dysfunction - symptom number 2. Now that I think about it, my Dad used to always say "are you going to the toilet AGAIN?" when we'd be watching TV - symptom 3. And recently I've sometimes noticed a strong odour from my urine - symptom 4. Add in the high blood sugar test and I feel confident that I will be diagnosed with diabetes.
Avatar m tn I get so frustrated at the doctors that blow off woman and mens complaints about lumps in their breast because their young at the time...and even more so for men that are young. Men can and do get breast cancer so its good you are being pro-active for yourself. Now that your 38 yrs old and the lump has grown and you think you feel enlarged lymph nodes under both armpits...I would seriously make yet another appt until you get this figured out.
Avatar n tn First of all you and he need to know that you are not alone. This can and does happen to men of all ages and couples. It *****. There are many, many men who suffer from this. But it is very likely that it can be easily treated and get you two back on track... 1. I'm sure that the problem is hard on you. It is hard to believe that it is not you when you are going thru this.
Avatar m tn Hope he is regularly screened by a doctor and signs of complications are caught early. That also will be a time his sense of immortality will be tested and a chance for his attitude to change and for him to quit. It is normal for all young people to feel immortal and diabetics are no different. Not only will nothing ever harm or touch them but they also can be attempting to deny the existence of their condition. They simply want acceptance by their peer group and to fit in at all costs.
Avatar n tn Most of the times this problem goes away on its own. Physical causes are common in older men and emotional causes are common in young men. Poor communication with your partner, stress, fear, anxiety, anger could be few possibilities. Diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure, heart or thyroid conditions can also lead to improper erection. Take adequate sleep and nutritious diet to ensure good blood supply.
Avatar n tn I check him and his glucose always appears to be in the normal range. A couple of days ago we were having supper and my husband asked my son if he felt ok. He looked pale and had dark rings under his eyes. He said he felt ok. We went shopping and he started complaing that he was having a lot of side pain (left side)and was very thirsty. We immediately went home because these were the same feelings that my daugher had prior to being diagnosed.
Avatar n tn t test my blood sugar, but I know my fasting glucose level is around the 126 range. Though there was no sugar in my urine, I am still afraid I might be showing signs of diabetes, but no one believes me. I also have a high blood pressure. Any help would be great. Thanks!
Avatar f tn Hi, I am 16 years old this year, I have a history of diabetes as my both paternal and maternal grandmothers have diabetes, my paternal grandma has died because of diabetes and my maternal grandma is still as healthy. I really dont know if my dad has.. Recently, I saw my used *underwear* that has not been washed quite awhile was with quite many ants in it.
