Do you think its very possible that i have diabetes?
I am a fourteen year old girl and i am five seven and weigh 114 pounds. I eat about an average of three packs of candy in a week (starburst, sourpatch kids, etc.). My dad was diagnosed with diabetes type two last year but no one else that I know of in my family has it. I think that he got it due to his poor eating habbits. I eat pretty healthy for my meals and rarely go out to fast food, my typical dinner is rice, chicken, broccoli, and salad. During the school year I drank a soda every day, i now realize i shouldnt have.
Hah i know that this is a lot of information but I am terrified and just want to know if i have a high chance of having diabetes
If you were diabetic, you would be displaying the normal symptoms such as frequent thirst, frequent urination, blurred vision, unexplained weight loss, extreme fatigue, etc. , none of which you mentioned. Based on the information you've given, I would say no. -------------------------
