Diabetes type one occurs when your pancreas doesn’t produce enough of insulin or when the way in which your body utilizes the insulin it does produce doesn’t work correctly. Insulin allows your body to transform glucose into energy and when the production of insulin is not adequate, or when the insulin is ineffective, your body cannot function properly and you have what is referred to as diabetes type one.

Diabetes type one can appear at any age but is most frequently in young adults, even children. This is why some doctors are calling this type of diabetes, juvenile diabetes. Type one diabetes signs and symptoms can come on quickly and may include the following:

? Fatigue. One of the other results that occur when you body doesn’t have enough of the nutrients that it needs - in this case sugar, is that you frequently become tired more quickly and become upset more easily and frequently. This is a symptom that most people quickly recognize.

? Frequently Hungry - If you don’ have the right level of insulin to move sugar into your cells, your muscles and organs don’t receive sufficient energy sources. The end result is that you may still be hungry even after you eat. Without the proper level of insulin, sugar in your food never reaches tissues to provide the energy sources your body needs.

? Weight loss. Even though you eat more, because you are hungry, you still lose weight. Sometimes this can happen very quickly. Because your body isn’t getting the energy it needs to help your body build muscles and keep your tissues healthy you may actually lose weight even though you are eating more.

? Increased thirst - As excess sugar builds up in your bloodstream you become thirsty and this of course causes you to drink more fluids more often. When you drink more fluids this causes to urinate more frequently.

? Blurred vision. If the levels of blood sugar are too high, not only is fluid pulled from your cells throughout your body it may also affect the tissues of the lenses of your eyes. The end result is that you can have difficulty in focusing.

If you begin to recognize any of these symptoms it may be time to schedule an appointment with your doctor to understand what your options are for treatment and control. Diabetes needs to be taken seriously and dealt with as soon as possible.
