Diagnosing Type 2 Diabetes
Type 2 diabetes is a manageable condition. Once you’re diagnosed, you can learn what to do to stay healthy.
Gestational Diabetes
Maybe you have a friend who was told she had diabetes during pregnancy. That type is called gestational diabetes. It can develop during the second or third trimester of pregnancy. Gestational diabetes usually goes away after the baby is born.
Type 2 diabetes makes up 90 to 95 percent of all diagnosed cases of diabetes, according to the CDC. It is also called adult-onset diabetes. Although it can occur at any age, it’s more common in people older than 40.
If you think you might have diabetes, talk to your doctor. Uncontrolled type 2 diabetes can cause severe complications, such as:
-amputation of the legs and feet
-blindness
-heart disease
-kidney disease
-stroke
Symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes
Some people are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes because they have symptoms. Early diabetes symptoms include:
-increased or frequent urination
-increased thirst
-fatigue
-cuts or sores that won’t heal
-blurry vision
Most often, people are diagnosed through routine screening tests. In general, routine screening for diabetes starts at age 45. You may need to be screened sooner if you:
-are overweight
-live a sedentary lifestyle
-have a family history of type 2 diabetes
-have a history of gestational diabetes or have given birth to a baby over 9 pounds
-are of certain ethnicity (African-American, Native American, Latino, Asian, and Pacific Islander)
-have a low good cholesterol level (HDL) or a high triglyceride level
How Doctors Diagnose Type 2 Diabetes
The symptoms of type 2 diabetes often develop gradually. Because you may or may not have symptoms, your doctor will use blood tests to confirm your diagnosis. The tests measure the amount of sugar, or glucose, in your blood. The tests used are the:
-glycated hemoglobin (A1C) test
-fasting plasma glucose test
-random plasma glucose test
-oral glucose tolerance test
Your doctor will perform one or more of the above tests more than once to confirm your diagnosis.
For a glycated hemoglobin (A1C) test, here is what your results could mean:diabetes = A1C of 6.5 percent or higherprediabetes = A1C between 5.7 and 6.4 percentnormal = A1C less than 5.7 percentA1C testing can also be used to monitor your blood sugar control after you’ve been diagnosed. Your A1C levels should be checked several times a year.

I. Even though insulin secretion is normal in type II diabetes, the person may still have diabetes. Because the glucose passes through the cell membrane and is burned to generate energy. If thickening occurs in the cell membrane, the passage of glucose into the cell becomes difficult and the amount of glucose in the blood increases.This is perhaps the most common form of Type II diabetes in society. Such a diabetes can be treated with St. John's Wort. For this, apply the following cure. (This is a known cure in some regions of Turkey.)
