First and foremost i do not know what is going on with my husband regarding wiht his health. All i noticed about him is that when he is hungry he really needs to eat. Just like before when we are just dating back then we went to a mall and then we watch a movie after we watch he said to me i am hungry then he ask me what about you are you hungry so i tell him the truth that no i am not hungry then he did not eat. Then later i just noticed that he sweets a lot then he became grouchy at me and then he's kinda starts to pass out.I ask him are you ok then he said to me and tell the truth that no i am not ok.I ask him what wrong with and and what is going on.he said i do not know but when i am hungry i need to eat right then and then coz if not i tend to be grouchy, sweets a lot then there is a possibility that i will pass out. Then i ask him are you diabetic he said he doesn't know. Well, one thing for sure right now and i know that everytime he is hungry he needs to eat i always give him food or anything to munch in. Do you think that my husband is a diabetic person based on his signs and symptoms

First thing is to not to keep him hungry, so that he does not feel like passing out. Check for the other symptoms also and accordingly go for the blood sugar test, that will rule out or confirm diabetes. Though the increase in hunger is one of the symptoms of diabetes but it can be due to other causes also. Some main symptoms of diabetes include, fatigue or tiredness, a wound taking longer than normal time to heal, person being thirsty all the time and need to urinate frequently.
