What are the symptoms of diabetes?

Diabetes often never gets detected because many of its symptoms seem like ordinary routines. Often the symptoms with type 2 diabetes are very subtle. This is one reason people can have diabetes and not know it. Talk with your doctor to determine if you should be tested for diabetes.
