alot of them. but if you think you might have it, don't put it off just go to the doctor and get blodwork done anyway and find out where you stand.
my main symptoms before being diagnosed: feeling very tired after eating, feeling shaky when not eating for a couple of hours, frequent urination.
i had to pee alot, got yeast infections all the time, was tired all the time, was approx 28 but felt more like 60 cuz i ached everywhere, and had numbness in my toes..well one in particular, and i had horrid bouts of abdominal cramping where i thought i would die.
They tell me that i am fortunate...it can be a lot worse...as soon as the sugars were even SLIGHTLY more under control i felt 99% better.

When my sugar level was low, I would get real hungry, a real bad headache, real shaky, confused and dizzy...When my sugar level was real high, I would get real anxious, real nervous, had to pee a lot, extremely thirsty, extremely hungry and craved sugar, pins and needles in fingers and toes and very sleepy. I had extreme joint pain and fatigue. Now that my sugar is under control, I feel a lot better....

I had a raging thirst *all the time*. I could drink a whole 1.5 litre bottle of water in one sitting and still feel thirsty. This was a symptom I got later on though, as the condition worsened.
My medical record is littered with about 3 years worth of other common symptoms before diagnosis; mostly various fungal and yeast infections, especially of the feet and skin. I've been on diet control for 4 weeks and metformin for one and already I feel 99% better! I still drink a lot but I don't feel thirsty all the time and I've been yeast infection free for the longest time I can remember!
Hope things work out for you!
