|
Classic symptoms of diabetes
|
Polyuria
Polydipsia Polyphagia Other symptoms: weight loss and fatigue |
|
Polyuria
|
Glucose level exceeds the renal threshold for glucose causing glucose to spill over into the urine
An osmotic diuresis occurs as glucose pulls water to be excreted in the urine |
|
Polydipsia
|
Water is osmotically attracted from body cells resulting in intracellular dehydration
The thirst center in the hypothalamus is triggered |
|
Polyphagia
|
Depletion of of cellular stores of carbs, fats, and proteins
Cellular starvation with triggering of hunger |
