I'm going to give you some of the early warning signs that you may have diabetes before you even see your doctor and have a blood test these symptoms are very often correlated with low blood sugar you think to yourself. now wait for a minute doctor story type 2 diabetes is high blood sugar but these symptoms are a reaction. I asked patients if they are ever experiencing the experience of these the first is excessive thirst now what you're trying to do is you're trying to dilute your blood sugar and so sometimes patients will tell me I feel thirsty all the time and no.
matter how much water I drink I'm always thirsty that's a bad symptom because it signifies that you're probably likely developing type 2 diabetes another symptom is that you're always hungry you can eat food and then two three hours later you're like starving you need you to need food that's another symptom again where the blood sugar drops and the patient's brain says I need food so excessive thirst excessive hunger that can't be satisfied.
