No one on here can tell you if you have diabetes. You must go to the doctors who will test you. It may be just your age, but just go and get yourself checked out

No-one here is qualified to say you have Diabetes or anything else. Not even a Doctor can listen to a list of symptoms and without doing anything give you a diagnosis.
You really need to have some tests done. Not all of the symptoms indicate diabetes some of them are also signs of Anemia which is very common (especially in girls your age)and easily treated but still needs a Doctor to diagnose. You say you have high blood pressure but how do you know?. It can be raised sometimes, purely because you are having it tested, and it depends on when it is tested, before or after exercise or eating etc. Even worrying as you obviously are can cause a rise in blood pressure. Again it is something that needs diagnosing medically.
There is no point sitting worrying about what it may or may not be so please Make an Appointment as soon as you can and let the proffessionals find the cause. It wont go away if you ignore it and as you should know People can live a 'normal' life with diabetes.

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.

Many common natural remedies are claimed to have blood sugar lowering properties that make them useful for people with or at high risk of diabetes. Learn here https://tr.im/W89qR
A number of clinical studies have been carried out in recent years that show potential links between herbal therapies and improved blood glucose control, which has led to an increase in people with diabetes using these more 'natural' ingredients to help manage their condition.

I have had diabetes since I was seven, so feel I am somewhat qualified to answer your question, although I have no medical training.
The most common symptoms of undiagnosed diabetes is tiredness, thirst, blurred vision, and frequent urination.
So given that you only have one of those symptoms, even given your family history, I would say it is quite unlikely.
Diabetes doesn't make you weak, it doesn't turn your blood brown and high blood pressure is not a direct symptom of diabetes. However, it certainly sounds as though you are not quite healthy, and I would advise seeing your doctor as soon as you can. Tiredness and lethargy as you describe, especially given your age, could be a sign of anemia, (low iron levels in blood), and a simple blood test from the doctor will rule this out.
If you have so many diabetics in your family, wouldn't one of them have picked up on your symptons? Ask one of them to finger prick test your blood or dip your urine to see what your sugars are like. One of them must do home monitoring.

A visit to the doctor's office will rule out the possibility of diabetes. I'm sure your folks will take you to the doctor, especially if you tell them how you feel.
Another thing to consider, how is your diet? Are you eating the things that you know are right for you? Are you getting enough water 5-6 glasses a day? Are you walking instead of video-ing? These are important questions to consider, because they are easier to correct than trying to live with diabetes.

The drinking and urination are symtoms, but you should not be drinking fruit juice. If you have diabetes, it will only make your body crave more fluid, to get rid of the sugar.
Drink water only, and go to a nurse who will give you a finger tip test, at leadt 2 hours after a meal, on the basis of which a doctor will decide what to do.

Go to your doctor. In the meantime, don't drink drinks that contain sugar, do light exercises, walk regularly around a block, avoid starchy food (pizza, pasta, potatoes), maybe your relatives can loan you a glucose test system (it's easy to do and may give you some accurate real-time readings).

That doesn't sound like diabetes, but you have to go to your doctor to have your blood suger tested. Do you drink alot of fluid and urinate alot more than you think is normal?

Chances are, you could be. Very high statistics, so I would get it checked out. Get a complete blood readout anyhow, and stop consuming fluid with sugar in it, switch to water. even juice is not good for you (I water mine down).
