The experience of this symptoms you mentioned made me aware to visit the Doctor. It turned out I had other reason for this symptom. The doctor meant its very unlikely having diabetes. However, a double check showed I'm border line prediabetes. I should watch my eating habits not to slip in Diabetes 2. Yet I ended up with a triple bypass surgery. Coming July and I start feeling real good, yet I certainly pay attention to my habits of eating. Changing that sounds easier than done. But finally see the results. Thank you for mentioning this, as it is a great invitation to pay attention what your body is feeling.

I had only one symptom and that was slow healing but I attributed it to age. My Dr wasn’t concerned either. I think that’s why it was such a shock when I got the diagnosis.
