What Is The Cause For Thirsty And Itchy Skin?
Hi, I'm just wondering what the actual symptoms of diabetes are, for a long time I have had trouble after I eat, I get flushed and sweaty and shaky. Within the last few months I have noticed I drink a lot! And am always thirsty, I also always have irritated itchy skin which may just be dry skin, so I moisturizer often to try to fix it. But I'm concerned all of a sudden because this last week I cant eat anything or my body just rejects it and I throw up. Could this be associated with my other problems?

Hello,
Feeling over thirsty can be symptom of diabetes but nausea and vomiting suggest something else like gastritis or gastroeneteritis or liver inflammation like hepatitis etc.
It would be better on your part to consult a doctor and get examined and properly investigated to find the exact cause of your symotoms.
Thanks
