Suspected Type 2 Diabetes

By LittleCrimson October 15, 2020 9 answers Last updated October 15, 2020

Hello. I'm very confused and I don't know where to start ... Maybe since childhood. I've been a full child since I was little, I've been pampered, and obviously I haven't moved enough. Puberty came and I held hands and lost weight, but not for long and I gained weight again. I recently came across a book briefly describing type 2 diabetes. Immediately after reading the "brochure" I found that I had almost all the symptoms. I rummaged through the internet and began to suspect more and more that I had diabetes. There is (not recently) easy fatigue and general fatigue, which I have already accepted as normal. I have some 9-10 extra pounds (calculated according to my height). I constantly drink water, my mouth stays dry in spite of everything, I often urinate. My feeling of hunger is also increased. On top of that, I have polycystic ovaries, which I don't even want to comment on. I read a lot of things on the internet, and I have a mess in my head. Such a serious illness, and I'm only 17 !! I want to do tests for an hour, but I think I need a referral from a doctor, and mine is almost impossible to take at the end of the month. The thought that I may have diabetes and insulin dictates my life is ruining me. Dear people, please share how things are with the research, and if there is a person suffering from the disease, let him share his experience. Thanks! (To the moderators: please post my story, because this is something very important to me) that I need a referral from a doctor, and with mine it is almost impossible to take at the end of the month. The thought that I may have diabetes and insulin dictating my life is ruining me.

   You got into a movie. With 10 extra pounds you can't catch diabetes. And yet - instead of browsing the internet, there is a very easy way to find diabetes - go to your doctor, tell about your doubts and you get a blood test - BUT Even in some pharmacies they measure blood sugar ...

   Dear girl, as number 1 wrote to you, you probably get into a movie on your own, but still: Diabetes is really a serious disease and unfortunately more and more young people have indicators of the onset of diabetes. It is commendable that you think about it and you are really obliged to check yourself even with the slightest doubt. Again, number 1 is right. Here's how: Go to your GP and share what you doubt. They will do a test for you immediately, every personal doctor has test strips and a device. If you think that you can set aside some money for yourself or by sharing this with your parents, then buy a device from the pharmacy and measure your blood sugar yourself. In the morning on an empty stomach, without eating or drinking anything, you should have normal blood sugar for your age between 4.5 and at most up to 6.5, depending on what you ate yesterday. All indicators above 7 in the morning on an empty stomach almost always mean certain diabetes. In addition, you can measure your blood sugar at any time and you should know that anything more than 11 is diabetes and take measures. If by chance you don't find such a value, it doesn't mean that you should switch to insulin immediately. There are many methods, but this is now mandatory for a doctor - only with a doctor's prescription, without free essays. There are many other alternatives, I repeat again, God forbid you find it. You are young, you will eat no later than 18 to 18. 30 in the evening, you will not drink water two hours after meals and during meals, etc., etc., but look at your indicators first !! !! Most likely number 1 is right and you have nothing !! Greetings, Uncle Gosho you can measure your blood sugar at any time and you should know that anything more than 11 is diabetes and take measures. If by chance you find such a value, it does not mean that you should immediately switch to insulin.

   They need to do a blood sugar profile and a urine test, but you can also pretend you have something. For now, stop the sweets and eat whole grain bread.

   It's like writing from a desert island. What do you ask people about health topics, there are doctors for this job. When you doubt whether you have health problems, you go to your personal doctor and do prophylaxis, it is already mandatory. Minister Moskov is right, we are very ignorant and careless about our health, we do not do preventive examinations, but we constantly criticize how bad the medical care is. We are left to become ruins and we want the doctors as Gods to restore our health. This cannot happen, everyone has to take care of their own health. Young girl, do a prophylaxis with a doctor, this is the solution to your problem, here you will only panic even more. You can also become hypochondriac, then your condition will get worse.

   Здравей авторе, №1 и №2 ти казват с лентички да си провериш кръвната захар, което е проверка на диабет тип 1 и при теб най-вероятно всичко ще е нормално. Разбира се никой не може да бъде сигурен, но не мисля че имаш диабет тип 2 с 10-те кг наднормено тегло, особено, като не си ни дала ръста си ние да преценим дали имаш 10кг наднормено тегло. Описанието на оплакванията ти още повече озадачава, нима мислиш с описание "лесно" се изморявам, може някой да прецени какво натоварване за теб е лесно или трудно? Нима мислиш че описание "често" уриниране е точно? Точна диагноза се поставя с точни данни, думи като често, постоянно или лесно не дават точни данни, като се има предвид, че не те познаваме и не сме ви виждали. Пиши по ясно, кажи нещо такова: уринирам над 10 пъти в денонощие, пия над 4 литра вода на ден, тежа 70кг и се изморявам при изкачване пеша на четвъртия етаж на блока за да те разбере някой.

   n 5, the strip test is for both types of diabetes - either you have high blood sugar or not. If the bar shows that you are over 6, say, you go to the doctor - there you eat jam and blood tests are done again and doctors determine which diabetes you have, but both types have high blood sugar. Sometimes you may just have eaten something before the strip test and not have diabetes at all. I have type 2 diabetics in my family and I can reassure the Author. Risk factors include adiposity (true obesity) as well as old age. She is a young and probably slightly plump, but normal-weight woman, which is not a risk factor at all. On the contrary, slightly obese people live longer than weak people. He just doesn't need to gain weight anymore and lose weight fast and hard, and then gain weight. It is also important not to eat sugary foods, because the pancreas is loaded and will someday explode. That is, sweets, eating a lot of carbohydrates (pasta, bread) are also a factor at least for type 2. It is most useful to live with your normal weight and not be a slave to fashion TV. We will not become models without it.

   I am the author. :) First of all thank you for the comments and tips! :) Yes, I know that it is possible that I was filming (I hope it's just the movie), but I have a relative who had diabetes and maybe that affected me a lot. Tomorrow I will visit the personal and share my doubts (I hope he takes me seriously). Since yesterday I have taken measures for jam (although it is not my biggest weakness) and pasta. Even if I don't have diabetes, it won't hurt me anyway, on the contrary. To N5 - My height is 170 cm and I weigh 67-8 kg. My fatigue is not caused by a certain physical action, but is general (I do not know exactly how to express it). In most cases it is not from lack of sleep. I drink 2, 5 liters of water, which is not so much for the summer, but my mouth is constantly dry, even after drinking water. To N6- I shift the topic of diabetes a bit, but ... My weight has constantly varied, I have never fit into the category of "weak" or "normal" (at least for most people). For me personally, weight is not a factor, it is more important how I see myself in the mirror. The bad thing is that even if you accept yourself and are happy with how you look, there will always be a villain who will want to convince you otherwise. This phenomenon is especially common in teenage circles, unfortunately. Have a nice day everyone and stay healthy!

   Hello! I am 14 years old and I found out that I have type 1 diabetes this January (5 months have passed). My symptoms were the same, except for polycystic ovaries and obesity - I lost weight. Type 1 diabetes is caused by stress and 2 by long years of unhealthy living. In principle, I know that people with type 2 keep a diet and are on pills. People from 1 are on insulin and can eat anything. There are children with diabetes at the age of 2 - age does not matter (of course at such a young age is 1 type). And the fact that insulin will control your life is quite annoying, but it's a fact! I got used to the needles pretty quickly and I advise you to do your research sooner. Good luck!!!

   Hello author, I'm number 5. Your physique is good, you do not have kg above the norm, of course it is not bad to lose 2-4 kg, but this is a variation in the norm. Constant fatigue is due to your age, girls have such periods, especially around the age of 17, at the end of the school year and when they are not madly in love. If you fall in love soon, you will see how quickly the fatigue will disappear. The water you drink is a normal amount, and for dry mouth look for other causes, I can list over 15 causes of dry mouth besides diabetes, see on the net how much is described about it, in the extreme case go to the pharmacy there are moisturizing sprays. And you certainly don't have diabetes.
