Even if you have diabetes you still may not feel sick. Have a blood test done if you think that you may be at risk for diabetes. This is the reason why people with diabetes are more likely to have heart disease. This can cause hemmoraging, eye disease and even blindness. If you don't feel pain, you can get hurt and not know it.
Diabetes can also make it hard for cuts and sores to heal.
If they don't heal, they can get infected. Damaged kidneys cannot clean the waste out of the blood. The waste will stay in the body and you will feel very sick. Living with diabetes can be hard. To stay healthy, people with diabetes must change the way they eat, and the way they live.
