Thirst and urination: Signs of diabetes include getting really thirsty & urinating a lot. Because your body is trying to dilute your urine with water to get rid of excess sugar. Type 2 diabetes might also present with some signs like abdominal bloating, poor digestion, tingling in hands & feet, blurry vision. A lot of times unfortunately there's no signs in prediabetes and early stages of diabetes.
