Diabetes symptoms

There are about 20 to 30% of people with diabetes diagnosed without symptoms, most commonly diabetes type 2. They are totally symptom-less and diagnosed during routine health check-ups or during any other illness.  Generally, this symptom-less diabetes may continue for more than 5 to 10 years by the time, diabetes complications may start affecting various organs. Thus, if you are at increased risk to diabetes, then you need to undergo a routine blood-glucose test to diagnose diabetes in time and stop diabetes complications.
