Apart from diabetes, what would cause frequent trips to the bathroom?

Mogli asked:

I’m not a diabetic.  My blood sugar levels are normal.  Why do I get the urge to go to the bathroom so often.  It’s driving me mad but, if it’s not diabeties, what is it?

Why should those with diabetes wear shoes all the time?

Livabetes give me sugar dizzies asked:

Earlier today I read an article about shoes and the different problems with different kinds of shoes.

I can’t find it anymore, which is why I didn’t post the link.

But in the article, it said that someone with diabetes or would likely eventually get diabetes should never go without shoes; whether inside or outside their house.

Why would that be? Thanks for any help in understanding this.

What is the correlation between diabetes and obesity?

bio machine asked:

It has been obsereved that obesity occurs in people suffering from obesity. There should be some correlation between the two. This may be due to some physioloic, genetic, immunologic or some other factor. As a student of biotechnology, I wanted to know the precise relation between them and the mechanism by which they affect each other. I would also be thankful if some good websites for exploration of this topic are suggested.
