[QUOTE="Celsus, post: 1069708, member: 185674"] Weight loss and nausea certainly comes up typically long before diabetes is being considered as reason for the other mentioned observations. Permanent thirsty and non-stop need to go pee-pee are the other most frequent signs, that typically have been present during weeks/months before diagnosis is made. I do actually not understand why the doc did not just do a urine strip test right then and there. For diabetes type1, then that would give instant proof of reason to pursue with blood test and glucose stress test for final confirmation. The observed symptoms as described by [URL='http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/members/jordanmarie.272345/'][U]JordanMarie[/U][/URL], low immune system, constant infections. Tonsillitis, chest infections, conjunctivitus, ear infections, coughs and UTIs are all secondary symptoms at best and not uniquely indicators of diabetes. Fingers crossed ! [/QUOTE]
