Symptom #3: Fatigue

As mentioned earlier, when you have diabetes, your cells do not get enough glucose to break down for energy production. As a result, your body may only have energy for the more essential organ functions like heart beat, brain functions and breathing. This lack of adequate energy presents as fatigue such that you are unable to carry out ordinary activities like walking or doing laundry.

If you are chronically fatigued and have some of the other symptoms associated to diabetes, it is important that you visit a doctor for testing. Remember that if diabetes is left untreated, it can lead to more serious complications, including death.
