What are the symptoms of childhood diabetes?

Patient's question:

My friend's child has been feeling unwell recently and went to the hospital for a routine check-up. The doctor discovered that he has type 1 diabetes. I'd like to understand the specific symptoms that type 1 diabetes can present with.

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it is best to consume less but not less than 150 grams of staple food daily. However, if a diabetic patient's appetite suddenly increases, it is important to pay attention to potential complications such as infections, ketosis, and other complications. The specific symptoms are as follows: excessive urination, dry skin, extreme thirst, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, weight loss, weakness, rapid heartbeat, slow and deep breathing, decreased blood glucose test results, and positive urine sugar test results.
