I know this should probably be on the diabetes board but my symptoms could be something else.

Anyway. For a while I've been worried that I'm diabetic. I've looked up lists of symptoms on the internet and in books and I seem to be showing most of them. It started with people telling me that I'd lost weight. I didn't notice it but other people have. Now I'm really starting to notice it. And it's starting to worry me. I'm not doing anything to lose weight. I haven't changed my diet or started exercising any more. I just seem to be losing weight for no particular reason. I've also been feeling really tired most days. I can't get up to 10 hours sleep some nights and still be exhausted and almost falling to sleep by 12 mid day. For the last year I've noticed that my eye sight is really bad. I've had glasses since I was 6 but never wore them. Not I can hardly see without them. I have to squint to see things that other people can see easily. I've been going to the toilet a lot too.

So does it seem like diabetes? Or could it be something else? Or am I just being paranoid and worrying over nothing? I know I should go and see my doctor, just wanted some peoples opinions first.

It could be diabetes yes. The only way to find out is by having a Glucose fasting test done by your doctor. Good luck. :)
