Hi Walter,

 

Abnormal thirst is one of the symptoms.


Here's a link to Diabeteens' information on other symptoms.

 

But, what you really need to do if you're concerned, is go to your doctor or the Emergency room and ask them to check your blood glucose levels and your urine. Tell them you think you may have Type 1 diabetes. It's a very small finger poke to get a little bit of blood.


If it isn't diabetes, they'll know right away. However, there might be something else going on in your body that needs attention! Talk to a doctor!
