Diabetes is the No. 6 leading causes of deaths in the United States, according to 2001 data from the United States National Center for Health Statistics.

Juvenile Diabetes Symptoms

The process that destroys the insulin-producing beta cells can be a long and insidious one. At the point when insulin production bottoms out, however, type 1 diabetes usually appears suddenly and progresses quickly. Warning signs of type 1 diabetes include:

Frequent urination (in children, a recurrence of bed-wetting after toilet training has been completed).

Unusual thirst, especially for sweet, cold drinks.

Extreme hunger.

Sudden, sometimes dramatic, weight loss.

Weakness.

Extreme fatigue.

Blurred vision or other changes in eyesight.

Irritability.

Nausea and vomiting (acute symptoms).

Children with type 1 diabetes may also be restless, apathetic, and have trouble functioning at school. In severe cases, diabetic coma may be the first sign of type 1 diabetes

Diabetes Symptoms in Child

Parents of a child with "classic" symptoms of diabetes may notice that their son or daughter is abnormally thirsty, needs to urinate frequently, and has been losing weight in spite of a good appetite. But this is only one possible set of symptoms. Sometimes, the first sign of diabetes is bed-wetting in a child who has always been dry at night. Other times, in girls, it's a vaginal "yeast" infection (candida infection). About 25% of children have already progressed to diabetic ketoacidosis by the time they first see the doctor. Because these children may vomit and complain of abdominal pain, their symptoms can be mistaken for the flu or appendicitis. In the most severe cases, the child breathes rapidly and deeply, has a fruity odor on his breath, and may lose consciousness.

Doctors diagnose diabetes by testing for glucose and ketones in the urine and by measuring glucose levels in the blood.
