Signs and symptoms of diabetes, explained | JUST THE FAQs

Over 37 million people in the U.S. have diabetes and that number is climbing. Here are the signs and symptoms.

Diabetes is expected to surge dramatically in young people over the next several decades in what experts say should be a wake-up call to prioritize health in America.

Researchers estimate that in 2060, there could be as many as 220,000 people under age 20 with Type 2 diabetes, an increase of nearly 700%, according to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study released Thursday. Those with Type 1, the most common type in young people, could see a 65% increase.

Overall, the findings estimate that more than half a million young people could have diabetes in 2060, if current rates continue and with population increase. In 2017, that number was 213,000, according to the study published in American Diabetes Association’s Diabetes Care.

Lee Health is a nationally recognized, award-winning health system in Southwest Florida. We are caring people, inspiring health.

The numbers are surely attention getting: nearly 7 million Americans have undiagnosed diabetes. What gets less notice are the early warning signs.

“If they’re not going to their doctor, if they’re not seeing their physician they’re not having those lab works, they’re not reporting their signs they could just be going along with their normal daily activities,” says Melanie Aracri, a certified diabetes educator for Lee Health.

All too often patients show up at a hospital in a health crisis and find out they have highly elevated blood sugar. New studies find 1 in 10 heart attack patients may have undetected diabetes. We’ve broken down 5 warnings signs that should get your attention.

“The three classic signs of high blood sugar, we call them the three “P”s: polyphagia, polydipsia, and polyuria. Those are increased thirst, increased hunger, and increased urination,” says Aracri.

It’s easy to minimize increased thirst, especially when it’s hot. And frequent urination seems to naturally follow. But experts say it could be our body’s way of flushing extra glucose.

“The kidney has to work really hard to get that blood sugar out, that blood glucose out when it’s high,” says Aracri.

Wounds that don’t heal could be another warning sign.

“The body’s not able to fight that infection because of that extra glucose in the system,” says Aracri.

Frequent yeast or urinary tract infections may also be a red flag many people fail to consider. The earlier diabetes is picked up, the easier it is to avoid complications.

“it’s a learning how to adapt your eating pattern, your meal plan to your lifelong activities and daily habits,” says Aracri.

Vitamin D Deficiency (Part 2) | Hyperparathyroidism, Clinical Features (ex. Osteoporosis), Diagnosis, Treatment

This is part 2 in a series on Vitamin D deficiency. In this lesson, we continue with our discussion on Vitamin D deficiency, including hypocalcemia and secondary hyperparathyroidism, clinical features including myalgias & arthralgias, and complications like rickets and osteoporosis. We also discuss methods to diagnose (mild, moderate and severe vitamin D deficiency), and ways to treat it.

This is a very complex topic that definitely requires more discussion! Again, I’m not entirely satisfied with this lesson, so please let me know if you found it helpful!

4:13 Treatment of Bone Cancer

A bone tumor is an abnormal growth of tissue in bone, traditionally classified as noncancerous (benign) or cancerous (malignant).[1][4] Cancerous bone tumors usually originate from a cancer in another part of the body such as from lung, breast, thyroid, kidney and prostate.[1] There may be a lump, pain, or neurological signs from pressure.[1] A bone tumor might present with a pathologic fracture.[1] Other symptoms may include fatigue, fever, weight loss, anemia and nausea.[2][3] Sometimes there are no symptoms and the tumour is found when investigating another problem.[2][3]

Diagnosis is generally by X-ray and other radiological tests such as CT scan, MRI, PET scan and bone scintigraphy.[1] Blood tests might include a complete blood count, inflammatory markers, serum electrophoresis, PSA, kidney function and liver function.[1] Urine may be sent for Bence Jones protein.[1] For confirmation of diagnosis, a biopsy for histological evaluation might be required.[1]

The most common bone tumor is a non-ossifying fibroma.[4] Average five-year survival in the United States after being diagnosed with bone and joint cancer is 67%.[5] The earliest known bone tumor was an osteosarcoma in a foot bone discovered in South Africa, between 1.6 and 1.8 million years ago.[6]

Tension Headaches | Triggers, Risk Factors, Signs & Symptoms, Types, Diagnosis, Treatment

Tension Headaches (also known as stress headaches and tension-type headaches) are very common headaches that lead to mild-moderate bilateral head pain. Tension Headaches can be triggered by a variety of factors including sleep deprivation, dehydration and stress. Tension Headaches differ from migraine headaches in many ways including that tension headaches are bilateral, do not have associated nausea/vomiting and do not have a prodrome. In this lesson, we discuss all the triggers, risk factors, signs and symptoms, how they are diagnosed and how they are treated.

Stress & Migraine Attacks

Five million people in the U.S experience at least one migraine attack per month. Dr. Patricia Feito, Family Medicine Physician at Baptist Health Primary Care, says the biggest trigger is stress. “We can’t deny that obesity and being overweight are conditions that trigger migraines but stress is an utmost primary thing that we look at when we’re dealing with migraine triggers,” she explains.

She points out a migraine is a headache, it is an intense throbbing symptom that occurs in areas of the brain and it has a lot to do with electrical conduction of the brain attached to vascular circulation, causing either constriction or dilation.

Appendicitis Signs & Symptoms | & Why They Occur

Appendicitis is a condition involving inflammation of the appendix. Appendicitis occurs due to blockage of the appendiceal lumen, which leads to bacterial overgrowth or proliferation within the appendix, ultimately leading to an inflamed and enlarged appendix. As the appendix becomes more and more enlarged and inflamed, it begins to cause a variety of symptoms, which we will discuss in this lesson.
