Multiple: There are plenty of symptoms including increased thirst, urination, and appetite. There can be increased fatigue, visual changes, more yeast infections, and nervous system symptoms. However, these symptoms are variable from person to person, so the best "symptom" if you will is elevated blood sugar levels. This is an easy test to perform so would recommend getting that done.
