Check your symptoms before it’s too late! Dr. Chet or Dr. Chet Bunyawongwiroj, Deputy Director of Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital, posted on his Facebook page “Dr. Chet” warning about 5 early symptoms of diabetes that many people may overlook. He stated that if you have any of these symptoms, you should get a health check immediately.

5 silent symptoms

Diabetes is a condition caused by abnormally high blood sugar levels. If left untreated for a long time, it can lead to serious complications such as kidney disease, heart disease, blood clots, or even loss of vision.

5 warning symptoms of diabetes that should not be overlooked

  1. Frequent thirst, drinking excessive amounts of water
    • If you feel thirsty all the time, even when the weather is not hot or you are not exercising, it may be because your body is trying to expel excess sugar through your urine, which causes your body to lose a lot of water, making you feel thirstier than usual.
  2. Frequent urination, especially at night
    • Getting up frequently at night to urinate is a major warning sign because it means that your kidneys are working hard to expel sugar from your body.
  3. Often hungry, no matter how much you eat, you are never full.
  4. Fatigue, easily fatigued
    • Waking up in the morning and still feeling tired or exhausted may be because the cells in your body are unable to use sugar for energy, so they have to burn fat and protein instead.
  5. There are dark spots on the neck, joints or armpits.
    • Dark spots on your neck, folds, or armpits can be a sign of insulin resistance, which causes skin cells to thicken and darken abnormally.
