Diabetes is one of the major cause that leads to death. In 2010 alone there were sixty nine thousand and seventy one deaths that were caused by it alone. And another hundred thousand estimated that listed it as one contributor to death.

There are many reasons why people die from this health ailment because they not have the proper knowledge behind the ailment. And most do not visit their doctors for diabetes counseling. Consequently the disease goes undetected for years until serious ailments suddenly show on the body.

However if left untreated often increases the risk for serious health complications to arise. Also it is important to address the common signs and symptoms for early detection. The following is symptoms and signs of this such as frequent urination, feeling thirsty and hungry all the time, intense fatigue, foggy vision, open wounds take longer time to heal, weight loss for type one sufferers, and numbing and tingling sensation around the extremities for type two.

Furthermore these signs might not even appear especially for sufferers of type two. Another reason sufferers should check with a health care professional and undertake test to determine whether there is a high presence of blood glucose. However test are repeated to reconfirm the levels, but when two different test results to positive outcomes there will be no second test again.

Symptoms for prediabetes always go undetected and patients who suffer from these do not often know it. But only after these high level complications such as gastroparesis, nephropathy, stroke, HHNS, and others develop in patients seek assessment from their doctors. Sometimes other complications develop in combination with main cause such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, hypoglycemia, CVD, problems with the eye and blindness, and sadly amputation as well.

But if the results from the assessment test show that high levels of blood glucose is present in your test. And a 2nd test is not needed to reconfirm whether you have diabetes or not. But two separate test which both results in positive would dictate that you have one.

Understanding the diagnostic procedures and its purpose is important. Because determining the level of sugar in the body is one factor that tells a patient if they have diabetes or not. The A1C diagnoses your body through measuring the average blood glucose level from the last two to three months.

Fasting plasma glucose exam is conducted after you have not eaten or drink other fluids except water for the last eight hours prior to the test. This test is usually conducted in the morning prior to breakfast. A normal FPG level often results to lesser than 100 mg per dl. Another is the oral glucose tolerance test which is a two hour test that examines the level of blood glucose before and within 2 hours once you drink a sweet special formula drink. This shows the doctor how the patients body can process glucose.

Because diabetes two does not develop immediately even if there is the presence of prediabetes in the body already. When early treatment happens then the levels usually return to normal. Losing at least ten to fifteen pounds would safely keep you away from developing diabetes in the future.
