Is this Diabetes?

[Lellylion]

Hi

Just a general... am I worrying over nothing type question really....or is this serious?

My 10 year old daughter started feeling under the weather on Sunday, complaining of tummy pains, feeling lethargic and tired, her front adult teeth were feeling a little loose and wobbly, constantly thirsty sipping a bottle of water, then needing a wee all the time.
She picked up during the evening however....
Monday she had the same symptoms so we kept her off school and towards the evening she picked up again....this has gone on the same for Tuesday and Today...

Could this be diabetes? If it is would it be normal to feel a little better in the evenings because she had eaten by that point?

Thanks
Helen

Hi Helen,

Take your daughter to see a doctor - no one can diagnose over the internet, so if you're at all worried you should take her in straight away to get checked out .
