Hello again everyone! I am now addicted to this site. I haven't been off of it for I need some more advice. This time it's about diabetes. My grandmother had it, my mother now has it, and I think I now have it. I have been having health issues like gaining weight for no apparent reason, I started having numbness in my R hand/arm and thought nothing of it. I figured maybe I had something pinched. I tried shaking my arm out and opening and closing my hand. It didn't go away for a bit, but like I said, I thought nothing of it. I noticed I've been downing water like crazy. I drink a bottle of water right before I fall asleep and the problem is, I still have cotton mouth and it never goes away. So, because of the increased water intake, I now urinate like crazy. I can normally hold it all day but now I'm constantly in the bathroom.I guess the only test that will tell if I have diabetes is checking my sugar, right?
