No, it's very possible to be type 2, young, and not overweight. I'm example of that.
It's certainly NOT pointless to test your blood sugar. It's very important. I've heard of doctors telling type 2's to test LESS, but not to stop all together. That's really odd. I know my doc told me to just test a few times a week but I refused and asked for more test strips. She gave it to me with no problem, a little surprised that I wanted to test MORE.
Are you able to go see a different doctor? I don't really know how your healthcare system is set up in England. Hopefully someone from that neck of the woods will come by and talk about that aspect.
