Answer to Question 1

The following are the typical symptoms of diabetes, although individuals with type 2 diabetes can have symptoms that go unnoticed: urinating often; feeling very thirsty; itchy dry skin; feeling very hungry; extreme fatigue; blurry vision; weight loss (even they individual is eating more); tingling, pain, or numbness in the hands/feet (type 2); cuts/bruises that are slow to heal; and more infections than usual.

With the onset of these symptoms, loss of consciousness may occur rapidly, followed by a coma. If the athlete has any of the signs or symptoms of diabetic ketoacidosis, activate the EMS system.
