Symptoms of Diabetes: Symptoms of diabetes are the same no matter what the age. They include increased thirst, urinating large volumes, blurry vision, yeast infections, and in some cases a dark area on the back of the neck, arm pits, any body folds especially, called acanthosis nigricans. If there is any question of diabetes, the teenager should see a doctor for blood tests. Diabetes is a lifestyle disease.
