  • How quickly do symptoms in Type 1 diabetes develop?
    Type 1 diabetes often develops quickly with clear and obvious symptoms but it doesn't always presently obviously. Sometimes it can be missed diagnosed for many years.

    We should explore what happens in Type 1 because it really does depend on what kind of person you are and how your Type 1 diabetes evolved and developed.
    If you have an interest in diabetes and you want to keep up to date then subscribe, share, comment and like this page.
    So I'm just going to plot a simple graph here where we are looking at insulin production on one side against time and if we imagine that a person who doesn't have Type 1 diabetes is producing 100% of their insulin needs. And so in producing 100% of their insulin needs something comes along that produces pancreatic trauma. Now that could be immediate. And that would be something like if your pancreas is removed and that often occurs if people have chronic pancreatitis or trauma or pancreatic carcinoma.
    So the more typical person who has Type 1 diabetes has a very sort of rapid onset but takes weeks to months to develop. And in this situation the pancreatic trauma that occurs is related to antibodies production. Often it follows a viral infection, the body produces antibodies against that virus but unfortunately the antibodies also seem to look for the specific cells in the pancreas that produce insulin called beta cells and it destroys them over time. And people in that situation would develop symptoms over weeks to months where the pancreatic trauma event occurs and very quickly insulin production falls very dramatically. So symptoms start quite quickly and it becomes quite obvious.
    But there is another group of people with Type 1 diabetes who have a very slow progression of diabetes. And they are often misrepresented and thought of as having Type 2 diabetes because it evolves so slowly that their diabetes control can actually deteriorate over years rather than weeks. And so our classic description of someone developing Type 1 diabetes over weeks doesn't quite fit that mould and this group of people are often missed and are often treated with insulin very late.
    And then the final group of people that we see who have a pancreatic trauma event are people who have for whatever reason a small self-limiting event which takes out a percentage of their pancreatic production. So it may be that a virus comes along the pancreas is affected, it takes about 20% of beta cell function and then they recover. And it may be that they end up still producing a decent amount of insulin and can have a great result with a small amount of insulin to top them up, it may be that they have 50% production of insulin or it might be that they even have 20% or 30%. But this group of people continue to produce insulin forever and their short term self-limiting illness kind of resolves but leaves them with an ongoing permanent reduction in insulin production that requires them to manage their insulin deficiency with insulin in the long term.

    Diagnosed type 1 at age 30. Weirdest and most disgusting feeling I have ever felt in my life. Symptoms were mainly dramatic weight loss in a couple weeks. And when I say dramatic, I mean like going from 158 lbs to 142 lbs in less than 3 weeks with the normal diet I had. I felt slimy and gross all the time, always sweating. Always had restless legs and nerve jolts in my arms like something was electrocuting my legs at night. Waking up drenched in sweat every night. And the big and most common one... waking up to piss at least 5 times per night. Sometimes pissing the bed. In hindsight I can see it was building up until the last couple weeks of feeling like complete shit to the point of taking about 5 to 10 minutes to gather the strength to get out of bed. Awful, awful awful experience. Ill rate it -100 out of 10. Would not recommend. Had to speak to manager many times about my experience.

      You are rating the experience hahahah, I was diagnosed with t1d 3 weeks ago at the age of 22 in the middle of the exams, same symptoms except didn’t piss myself. Symptoms appeared after an argument with fam members I don’t know whether it was a coincidence or had an effect on my diabetes

    Excellent and very informative - I was diagnosed with type 1 at the age of 55, like most people I had assumed this was a disease that onset early in life.

      Type 1 is genetic and can’t be prevented,, type 2 is usually to poor lifestyle choices and can be reversed

    I am newly diagnosed and only take 8 untis of long acting per day and it's been hard to accept I will be on quick acting.
    I have been preparing myself emotional for years for the day I end up with it as my mother and my brother have it and other family members.
    All thought my teens I was waiting for it to happen when I got to 20 I thought maybe I won't get it and calmed down about it then now at 22 I have ended up with it when I least expected it .
    I only found out becouse I went to doctors about my chest pain and had a lot of blood work done and come back I have diebetes.
    I have only been diebetic for 3 month's it gets to a point I am scared of eaten even now not eaten as much as I useto as only on long acting but I am scared of quick acting as I know how quick it can go down and I am new to everything even though I was around family members that have it I never really paid attention to how much it can change a life.
    Even now I am sick of having to watch what I eat and when I eat and taken my insulin every day and I can't even Imagen what is like for people who have to take more insulin and have to prick there fingers.
    I am greatful that I don't have to as I have a libra but I also think it's unfair that others don't get to have them as it dose help have a close to normal life.
    when Frist got the diebetes pricking my fingers was horrible as my fingers would get sore and I feel it would be better for everyone if could just check them by scanning themselves .
    People think isn't a bad condition to have and play it down but it is very frustrating and depressing and can kill you if your not on the ball with it everyday.
    Just letting people know if you have this condition don't give up and I feel it needs to be more awareness and information in the condition.

      i would suggest a glucose tolerance test rather than a random finger prick. Rule it out properly and look for what else can be the issue
