    Do you sweat profusely at night?<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Night sweats, often attributed to hot flashes or stress, may actually be a sign of\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>nocturnal hypoglycemia<\/span>\u00a0. When blood sugar levels drop too low, the body releases adrenaline in response\u2026 causing\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>excessive sweating<\/span>\u00a0.\u00a0 This\u00a0<\/span>is a symptom to watch for if it becomes frequent.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

        Do you feel an uncontrollable urge to move your legs?<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Restless legs syndrome may be\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>related to diabetic neuropathy<\/span>\u00a0, which is nerve damage caused by poorly controlled blood sugar.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Tingling, tension, or pins and needles<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0can make it difficult to fall asleep and fragment sleep.<\/span><\/p>\n

            Intense thirst accompanied\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>by a dry mouth upon waking<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0is not insignificant. It may reflect\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>dehydration linked to excess sugar in the blood<\/span>\u00a0. The body seeks to compensate for the loss of water caused by urine by stimulating\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>the sensation of thirst, called polydipsia<\/span>\u00a0.<\/span><\/p>\n

              Chronic fatigue can be a sign\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>of poor glucose utilization by cells<\/span>\u00a0. The result: a persistent lack of energy, as if\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>your body has not really recovered<\/span>\u00a0, despite eight hours of sleep.<\/span><\/p>\n

                \n

                Xerostomia\u00a0\u00a0, or dry mouth, is a common symptom of diabetes. It can cause\u00a0\u00a0repeated nighttime awakenings\u00a0<\/span>and<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0can lead to cavities or oral infections if left untreated. Insufficient hydration and high blood sugar are often the causes.<\/span><\/p>\n
