Ok.
For the last month or two, things haven?t been so great. I wake up every morning with a dry mouth. In fact, whenever I wake in the night, my mouth (and now my lips) are always very dry, and I need to reach for a glass of water. Secondly, I am having to get up between 2-4 times during the night to pee and always need to pee loads in the morning. Annoying.
Do I drink loads too? Yes and no. Only once I?ve eaten something, I do usually need to drink, and it?s sometimes a considerable quantity. But, I could probably go until 3pm today without drinking any water and not feel thirsty (provided I don?t eat). But I?ve been suffering from other symptoms. I sometimes feel tired in the day, but nothing too awful. But Aching legs is one I do sometimes get, always in the lower half. And then, on Tue evening, I began to get a shocking pain in my right foot, for no apparent reason. I ended up limping. Over the past few days, it?s slowly disappeared but? And then, my eyesight doesn?t seem right. I seem to find it a little hard to adjust to rapid movements in light-change or focus. And then there?s something else. Genitalia. It frequently feels rather itchy. Sometimes I have this strange, tingly sensation in my testicles! Tis weird. I?m 33, overweight and worried. Is it pretty-much a foregone conclusion that I have Type 2 Diabetes?
