We see diabetes as a lifestyle disease. There are two types of diabetes. Type-1 diabetes and type-2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is caused by the lack of insulin in the body. Meanwhile, type-1 diabetes is caused by the destruction of the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas, resulting in a lack of insulin and subsequent high blood glucose levels.
Singer and actress Priyanka Chopra’s husband Nick Jonas has opened up about his type 1 diabetes. The actor now shares the four symptoms he had when he was diagnosed with type-1 diabetes. The actor shared this in the form of a video through his Instagram.
Nik said he had four symptoms: weight loss, excessive thirst, frequent urination and sudden anger. The actor says that these four are the common symptoms of type 1 diabetes. The actor has shared about suffering from this disease before.
The actor had said then that he was diagnosed with type one diabetes when he was 13 years old. ‘I was playing with my brothers. Then I felt something wrong with my stomach. I told my parents that I wanted to see a doctor. After understanding my symptoms and doing tests, my pediatrician diagnosed me with diabetes. Type one diabetes. All the symptoms I had were type one. When I found out about this, I was totally scared and devastated. Will my dreams be shattered? Will my music end? I was scared… but I was determined that I wouldn’t give up. Those were tough days. But I got good support. I’ve been surviving for 16 years now,’ Nick wrote on Instagram.
