    I eat alot of sweets and Sugary things, Yet im not overweight but recently my friend has noticed i have been going to the toilet frequently, And always thirsty and hungry which infact if you are diabetic you have the symptoms, Polyuria (The need to urinate frequently)
    Polydipsia (Increased thirst & fluid intake)
    Polyphagia (Increased appetite)

    So i am quite frightnened i have diabties, Yet im to afraid to go to the doctors.
    Ive told my twin sister ( who does not have any symptoms) And she told me to not worry about it.
    What should i do ?

    how old are you? if you are in your early 20's or somewhere near there you are most likely fine. the need to urinate a lot is something that can be genetic and thirst and appetite is also natural for younger people (especially if you exercise a lot). I think you are probably fine even if you are not younger

    just to start off with, the sugar intake has NOTHING to do with getting diabetes. it is a myth that you can get diabetes from eating too much sugar. and you seem to have the symptoms, so it is important that you go to the doctor and get tested. if you wait too long your body could go into diabetic ketoacidosis, which is REALLY bad. it is where your blood turns acidic and starts eating the muscle and fat of the cells in your body.

    please get checked.

    I hope this helps.
