So I am super-duper worried I may have diabetes...
Sent to Health Experts March 04 08:04 AM

So I am super-duper worried I may have diabetes, but I am left uncertain. My family isn't one pre-disposed to it, as I cannot think of anyone in our family who has it, but lately my left leg has been tingly by the knee, I may have dry feet, and eat fast food pretty often. I don't have excessive thirst or hunger, or atleast that seems uncontrollable or urging to an inconvenience. I don't have urination compulsions, I probably go only once or twice a day, and my vision has required corrective lenses for years, but without glasses I can see pretty well as well. If you can tell me whether I should be worried or not, I would be much appreciated. Thank you.

my height is 5'10", my weight is around 150lbs., and I have no idea what the blood pressure and blood sugar levels are. Never did any investigations, though never has a doctor told me I have diabetes. I took acutane a couple years ago for a blemish problem, but not any more. Also, I was once ran over by a road grater at the age of 7 which lead to breaking my leg, but this hasn't been a bother to my life. I believe they cut some of my intestines out, which makes my food digestion probably run faster, but thats about it for medical relevancy. One final note, today I noticed my fingers when I was smoking a cigarette seemed to stiffen while I held it, but once I took it out, wiggling them was no issue.

Hello,

In my opinion you are not diabetic but if you are obsessed then you better get your blood sugar tested & thatt will 200% clear your doubt.

Your symtoms point out towards anxiety.

You should be extremely careful to the type of your diet & proper exercise. That will clear your problems.
