9 Signs of Diabetes That Appear at Night
Some symptoms of diabetes may become more noticeable at night. This is especially relevant for people who already have diabetes and use glucose-lowering medication.
1. Sweating
Nighttime sweating can sometimes occur when blood sugar drops too low, particularly in people taking insulin or certain diabetes medications.
You may wake up with:
- Sweating
- Shaking
- Restless sleep
- Nightmares
- A headache upon waking
However, night sweats can have many other causes and do not necessarily indicate diabetes.
