hi there. Just drinking a lot of water in itself isnt necessarily a sign of diabetes. some common symptoms are constantly thirst ,frequent urination, excessive tiredness . Since diabetes runs in your family , you would be wise to visit your doctor and get tested . They can do a quick test in the office for you and if there is cause for concern your doctor will have you tested (by blood test) to see what your blood sugar has been like over the past three months. It is important to get checked now because if you are prediabetic ,that would be the easiest thing to control (usually by diet and exercize) . At the very least you can end your worry about it.

good luck :wave:

I don't know how old you are or the practices in your country, but a yearly check-up might be warranted.
