Before I was dignosed, I was peeing almost every hour, I would get extremely tired anytime I ate, and I was drinking TONS of water!. I think I was going through 8 or 9 bottles per day, and I still couldn't stop the thirst!. It wasn't until I got an infection that I was diagnosed!. I chew my fingernails and one of them got infected, but it wouldn't heal!. My boyfriend, a type 2 diabetic, had told me to go beforehand, so I suggest you get yourself checked if you have any doubt in your mind!. You have a family history, so it's better ti be safe than sorry!Www@Answer-Health@Com
For me I drank water constantly, especially ice water, and it tasted like the most refreshing gulp on a hot hot day even in the middle of winter!. When I got hungry, it was insanely hungry!. I would get sleepy in the afternoon at my desk!. Going to the bathroom all the time, of course!. I started craving coca-cola and drank that instead of coffee, something I'd never done!.
I had ordered some pants from a catalog and put them away for a business trip, but on that trip when I took them out they fell off me, even though I'd tried them on when they first came in the mail!. It turns out I'd dropped a lot of weight in a very short period of time, like 30 pounds in one month! I kind of knew everything was fitting looser but that clenched it for me!.
I went to the doctor when I came back from my trip, he took a non-fasting blood test on the spot, and my blood sugar was 350!. Bingo!
Looking back I was very emotional at the time, too!. Kind of moody and things that normally would roll off my back really got to me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would get insanely tired after eating, be in bed by around 7:00pm, pee a little more frequently than everyone else around me, dry skin (biggie for me), always thirsty!. I found out when I switched doctors and had a entire blood workup done and my level was 178 (fasting), I was put on 3 meds at the time, and now 3 years later I'm on 1 med (avandia) and take it only once a day!.!.!. I won't lie, I'm still as thirsty as a cactus in Arizona, but I guess water is good for you!. I gave up diet soda because it's high in salt!.!.!. (bad for your heart) so no matter which way you look at it, something is always bad for us!. uuugh!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
A throat infection, and I was drinking jugs of water from the thirst!.
Trouble was, I didn't know what it was, so sometimes I would drink gatorade or grape juice!. The sugar just made it worse!.
When my vision blurred, that's when I went to the doctor!.
He put me on glucophage and a strong antibiotic!.
Once I learned that it was related to too much sugar, I started drinking nothing but diet sodas and water, and I haven't had any issues for the last 4 years!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
