My only symptoms are urinating often, and my vision is blurred only a little... I'm really scared at the possibility to be honest, but I'm just wondering, do these symptoms mean that I definitly have diabetes?
I'm still going to check, but until I get to the doctor's office, I won't know, I really need some support, I won't be able to get to my doctor until next week... I made an appointment already.
Just help me please.

I haven't experienced increased thirst, and actually though I've been urinating often, my urin is very clear. I've checked out about all the symptoms of diabetes and I only have those two. I haven't thrown up in months, I rarely get headaches, it's just these two stupid symptoms that are scaring the crap out of me, I don't know if my mom having to wear glasses might have anything to do with my eyes, my mom doesn't have diabetes (she checked) I mean is it possible for your vision to become blurred at a certain age? (I'm 17)

When I considered the possibility of having diabetes (two weeks ago) I cut out alot of sweets, I've been on a diet and exercise for two weeks as well. I actually recently got a membership at 24 hour fitness, and I still have to urinate pretty often. But maybe it's just more than usual, I mean what is considered urinating too often?
For me it's been like once every 3-4 hours.

I don't want to scare you even more, but at aged 17 you might have Type 1 diabletes, which is more serious than type 2 and usually occurs in younger people. It is interesting that you are urinating a lot but aren't really thirsty. You may just have a bladder or urinaty infection. Some of the other symptoms of type 1 or type 2 diabetes are lethargy, feeling hot, sleeping, weight loss (type 1), hunger or sugar cravings, and blurred vision.
If it is Type 1 you absoulitey need to see a doctor for a blood test as soon as possible. Until your appointment, you could go to a pharmacy and get some testing strips to check the sugar in your urine. You just collect it in a small container (or just pee directly on it) and you will find out how high your sugar levels are (anything over 120 is suspect, and if you can buy strips that also measure your ketone level (as the pharmacict to help you if you are not sure).
Good luck. Don't miss your doctors appointment!

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

You've done a wise thing by setting up an appointment already. In the mean time, I strongly urge you to keep a very close eye on your sugar intake between now and your appointment. Your blood sugar tends to rise as food is digested, and this is normal. Just keep an eye on what you eat until then. If bloodwork is scheduled for the day of the appointment, then don't eat anything until after all is said and done, or this will very likely result in a false positive reading for diabetes.

IF you do have type 2 diabetes. Before you get to the Dr. watch your diet and eat healthy and cut out most of your carbs and all your sweets for now. See if that might make a difference in your urinating and sight. But still go to the Dr. to find out definately if you have it or not.

If you are drinking soda with caffeine stop, this will increase your urinating. There are other reasons why you are having these symptoms. Don't worry...If you had diabetes you would feel really bad all over not just 2 symptoms, it is a good idea to see your Dr. though.
