[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He needs to test his blood sugar. Immediately. Type 1 can strike anyone at any age. Weight loss despite constant eating is a telltale sign. As blood sugar rises (bc glucose can’t enter to the cells without insulin), people grow irritable. Sometimes weird rages set in. The disease is unrelated to weight, diet, exercise, and most have no family history. UTIs are common. So are abscesses. I’m not saying it is diabetes. But if it is, and he is at the extreme weight loss stage, he is in real danger until he gets insulin. [/quote] Blood sugar was already tested. Not even close to pre-diabetic. -OP[/quote]
