Diabetes? Symptoms..?!
Question: I've had symptoms such as missed period, excessive drinking, itchy rashes on my wrists, Urinary tract infections (i think, needing to urinate every few minutes and its painful, not diagnosed however), thrush, blurred vision and shakey hands. I'm 99% sure im NOT pregnant and have missed my period for 2 months (ive done pregnancy tests which have been negative 2 months after my missed period).
While looking for an answer i came across a page with symptoms of diabetes. I am a bit overweight i suppose, but i cant get to the doctor for a little while.

Is that a wild guess?

if you can't go to the doctor, go to walmart. :) They have a blood glucose meter there and strips, and the whole bit will only cost you around $35 bucks. Check your sugars, follow the information in the book (or email me and i'll walk you thru it).
I am diabetic, but don't have most of those symptoms, and also, you can be diabetic without being overweight. You actually sound like you could be hypoglycemic, meaning you have low blood sugar. Either way, stay away from sweets and processed sugar. Some women also get 'pregnancy diabetes', which only happens when you're pregnant, then usually goes away after you have the baby.
Don't stress out over this stuff. Wait it out, and get to your doctor as soon as you can. Some pharmacies will test your sugars for you too, maybe check around?
Also, it is possible for pregnancy tests to show a false negative for up to 6 months into the pregnancy... :) My friend had 4 months of negative tests, and her son is turning 6 this spring.
Good luck hope it all works out for you!!
Edit: one more thing, most of your symptoms (including missed periods) are indicative of dehydration. :/ perhaps try drinking more fluids. ;)
Seriously you need to go to the doctor and talk all that out. Thats alot of problems you seem to be having that you need to talk out.
That would be something you need to speak with a doctor about. It would be great if yahoo answers coul solve all or problems, but it cannot, so please for your own health go see and talk to a doctor.
It's really easy to get a fasting blood sugar test at the doctors to be sure if you have diabetes or not. All of those symptoms could also be just a string of bad luck, but not related. Missed periods can be caused by stress. Rashes could be allergies. The need to urinate with pain could be Interstitial Cystitis or a UTI. So, it's important to get a diagnosis on all of these things.
what you have is the same thing I was diagonised with. It's called Insipidus Diabetes from the pitutary glannd not putting the right hormones out. You need to see a diabtes doctor and get your blood tested as that is what they did for me. don't let this go on as it will hot all parts of your body and you won't feel well. I waited too long and couldn't stay well. eating a proper diet is very important with this.
bethany...:) gurl..:)
in ure details..it sounds like u have not consulted to your physician yet..or have you..just concern:)
anywayz ive checked the website..
it would be possible that u also have diabetes, vaginitis is also a symptom of this disease..vaginitis almost have the symptom of UTI..
in order for u to know if u have a dibetes or not buy this "glucose strip" u can test yourself..the normal blood sugar will be 70-110
but morevoer the physician can diagnosed u..i think its better for u to go and have a checked up, to prevent further complications..and to put your mind at ease..coz u can never run away from something..
mybe u r still afraid of what will be the doctor said, but u have to be strong enough for u to get a treatment, go wi/ ure bf or your friends..ure gonna be ok..just pray
email me if u want to ask something or about the diagnoses..
hope this helps ..good luck:)
