Dry mouth, sick stomach, dizzy, sweating,nervous, shaking , and hungry all the time! Have they done blood work, have they checked your thyroid levels! Best Wishes & Good Luck!

Weight loss can also be a symptom as well as excessive thirst and for some excessive urination.
Sometimes Diabetes can still be an issue even though the blood tests are negative. As for being at risk for Diabetes yes it's possible based on these symptoms.
I would recommend getting another opinion and preferably from someone that does not share the same office of the dr that you currently see.

Classic symptoms of diabetes are extreme thirst and having to urinate all the time. Also, your urine may look dark because it will have sugar in it.
Have you been tested for a thyroid problem? Those can cause you to lose weight and feel more tired than usual.

I am a insulin dependant diabetic & had severe leg cramps, thirsty all of the time where I took a drink of water & immediately my mouth was still dry. Hungry all of the time & nervous, shaking.
