My Mom also has bladder/yeast infections all the time and she doesn't have diabetes.

Do you have any other symptoms? Thirsty all the time? Extrememly hungry? Skin Patches? Apnea?

To: Smcgee

Elevated sugar in the urine can cause frequent urination since it takes more fluid to carry this out of the body. Elevated sugar can contribute to more frequent infections throughout the body. But women have frequent yeast infections without diabetes as well.

In addition to that good list of symptoms, think about weight loss and hunger.
