I want to know signs & symptoms of a diabetic person. Recently, i became a little sluggish, and have been craving more of sweets. A friend told me that I might be diabetic because being sleepy all the time and feels like tired all the time and I feel too lazy to move could be a sign. But I'm clueless about it. I hope she is wrong. Please help and enlighten me.

Thanks so much for you. I hope I don't have diabetes. Maybe I'm just tired and nothing more to it. But i will definitely check out the site to make sure. I don't want to go to the doctor yet. Call it denial on my part hehe. Anyhow, thanks again my friend.

You should get tested by your doctor.
Those are just a few of the symptoms you will
have if you are diabetic. I have been a type 2
diabetic for years. 2 of my brothers and my sister
are diabetics. I have a blog about this disease and
a blog with some good tasting recipes on it.
