cfrd symptoms

diabetes

Suddenly I have a huge appetite. I just ate a have tube of pringles (usually I manage 2 or 3) I have been having huge portions and seconds in the last few days and am feeling hungry a lot ( I can usually go a day eating nil).
Anyway when I had my last infection, I was having these dreams of craving salt and sugar, then I'd wake up bursting to go to the loo and be really thirsty. I was told it sounds like nighttime diabetes!
If any of you have cfrd what were your symptoms, and what do you think this all sounds like? Has my appetite suddenly returned after 15 years or is it something more....thanx, shamrock x

Sorry - don't know if you're male or female, but this is exactly what happened to me when I was pregnant with my daughter. In fact, I actually got sick if I didn't eat as soon as I was hungry, which was most of the time the last 3 months of my pregnancy. This was the only time in my life I weighed more than 110 lbs....I put on 60lbs. while I was pregnant! Of course, lost it all in 4 weeks and then some.
