- Feeling Unusually Tired After Waking
Fatigue is another common diabetes symptom. However, morning exhaustion is nonspecific: interrupted sleep and many other conditions can produce the same feeling.
Feeling tired, irritable, or confused after waking can also occur after low blood glucose during sleep. Symptoms alone cannot reliably tell you whether your sugar is high or low.
When Should You Get Tested?
Contact a healthcare professional if these symptoms keep returning, particularly if you also notice unexplained weight loss, increased hunger, or frequent infections.
These are recognized diabetes symptoms.
