   That is one of the possible indicators of Diabetes, but it is also a sign of an enlarged prostate gland, a sign of bladder infection, even a sign of an aging bladder. Don’t put the cart before the horse, see the doctor.

   Frequent urination is one of the signs for diabetes. But there are also alot of other syptoms that come with It. If your bloodsugar is high you should feel thirsty, some people feel like their out of energy, and are tired all the time. Are you overweight? This is a sign too. But dont get yourself down, there are other reasons for frequent urination, do some research and go see the doc!

   Meet the Poly sisters….. typical symptoms of diabetes:
   Polydipsia = very thirsty
   Polyphagia = lots of eating
   Polyuria = lots of urination

   I am not a doctor so I don’t want to give you any recommendations, but if you are afraid of having diabetes, don’t, I am a diabetic and with proper care and attention I can live a normal life. But be sure to see your doctor, that is the most important thing.

   My son is type 1 his indicator was urinating every 30-45 min. very thirsty for a couple of days waiting for Dr. to open I thought UTI but then he sarted throwing up and more thirsty eyes sinking in could not harley walk thats when I said lets go to ER its something more then UTI. His blood sugar reading was 989 and a fruity smell bad odor from his mouth. But you can go buy Ketostix for Urinalysis to see if you have ketones if it shows moderate to large even small I would go get seen ASAP anytime my son BS is over 300 he has to urinate on one to see if ketones are presents because that means his sick and he is urinating out his insulin. Ketostix will help you and ease your mind about urinating every 45 min best of luck and hope this helped I will pray for you. Remember Ketostix!

   I wouldn’t waste time being scared. Just make an appointment and see your doctor. Whether it is diabetes or not, your doctor is the one who can tell you for sure.
   I have been diabetic for over 20 years now. My first indicator that I noticed was frequent urination.

   Ya know, there is also one other thing (or many) it could be. I go all of the freaking time. I am not diabetic, nor do I have a prostate. Remember that gotta go gotta go gotta go right now commercial? Well, that is me. I have frequent overwhelming urges to go all of the time. There isn’t even that much when I do sometimes. I tired detrol and one other drug. Didn’t like the side effects so I live with it. However, not being a guy, but knowing a few…I’d say prostate problems before diabetes unless you have some other symptoms you failed to mention.
