What are signs for diabetes?

With regard to the other posts, there can also be a situation where there are no obvious signs/symptoms! My condition was only discovered as part of monitoring of my cholesterol. If you are concerned go and see your doctor who could arrange a blood test. This test takes a sample of blood, then you drink a glucose mixture (Not unpleasant) and then have another sample taken an hour or so later. This measures your body's capacity to handle glucose.
