My youngest son is always thirsty and can't get enough of the sweets.  I have banned candy and those Capri Sun drinks from my house, but this still continues.    He's only 5 and  very active.  Should I be worried?  Can they test Glucose levels on a child so young?  Thank you.

Hi There, Please Take your Son to the Doctor.  A simple blood test can be performed at any age.  This is my BEST Advice.  I would say to do this IMMEDIATLY!  Without a Blood test, either Fasting or not, there is NO way to know if there is a problem!  YOUR Doctor will be be able to determine if there is a problem!

And Good for you for limiting those sweets and Sugary Drinks!

Go Veggies and LOVE that Water!!

I agree with Leslie…

Also, for reference I have copied the symptoms from the Juvenile Diabetic Research Foundation: http://www.jdrf.org. 

What are the symptoms of type 1 diabetes?
The symptoms may occur suddenly, and include one or more of the following:

  • Extreme thirst
  • Frequent urination
  • Drowsiness, lethargy
  • Sugar in urine
  • Sudden vision changes
  • Increased appetite
  • Sudden weight loss
  • Fruity, sweet, or wine-like odor on breath
  • Heavy, labored breathing
  • Stupor, unconsciousness

If you think you have diabetes, call a doctor immediately, and drink fluids WITHOUT SUGAR to prevent dehydration.
