only testing for your hyperthyroidism
For Diabetes you need to fast!.!.then if its possible they do a second test called a Glucose Tolerance Test!. Involving a blood test then this drink then a second blood test!.

So no!.!.you would not have been testedWww@Answer-Health@Com

If you suspect you have diabetes, make sure you ask for a test!. Otherwise, it may get overlooked!.

I was a diabetic for a couple of years before my girlfriend noticed I was displaying symptoms of diabetes!. She suggested I ask my doctor and sure enough, I tested positive!.

I was seeing my doctor regularly for other things before this and why he didn't check me, I'll never know!.

If he had, who knows what problems I might have avoided!.

Bottom-line:

Don't assume that your doctor knows what to test for and is doing it!. If in doubt, ask!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
