Are the symptoms of diabetes the symptoms of high blood sugar?

May 1st, 2009 by admin

What I mean is, do you ONLY have the symptoms of diabetes (peeing often, drinking often etc.) if you have high blood sugar?

Yes.
Those symptoms only occur during high blood sugar.
However, low blood sugar comes with other symptoms: shaking, mood swings (personally, i have to fight back tears xD), nervousness, extreme fatigue, desperate hunger, fogginess, dizziness, sweating. Those are my symptoms but other people experience other things.

Low blood sugar is MUCH more noticeable than High Blood sugar, you only usually have high blood sugar symptoms when you're above 300.

    Well there is hypoglycemia, which could be a type of diabetes, which is low blood sugar instead of high. So you could have the symptoms of diabetes if you have low blood sugar too.

    High blood sugar or hyperglycemia and low blood sugar or hypoglycemia have practically the same effects when they are very high or very low. These are cold sweat, and if not prevented on time, dizziness and then blackout. Both are dangerous situations. Now, with regards your question, the symptoms that you mentioned (peeing often, drinking often, etc.) are indicative of high blood sugar but are not exclusive as low sugar could give conflicting results.
