Find Diabetes Clinics »
Unlike type 1 diabetes where the symptoms usually come on very quickly requiring emergency treatment, the symptoms of type 2 diabetes progress very slowly over a number of years. The symptoms are similar to those of type 1 diabetics and include:
- Excessive thirst
- Loss of appetite
- Unexplained weight loss
- Dizzyness and/or blurred vision
- Increased infections
- Excessive tiredness
- Increased itching
In children the symptoms can be much the same, however they sometimes do not notice that anything is different. You should look out for:
- Weight gain/obesity
- Decreased urination
- Increased infection
- Tiredness
