MTmama, I don't think anyone here can put your mind at ease. Your symptoms are more of a hypoglycemic than they are of someone with diabetes. The jittery feeling of being low is usually associated with someone on insulin or medication for diabetes. If you are truly a type two, your symptoms probably would not include low blood sugar.

Your best bet is to go to a doctor. If you can't afford a office visit, you can go to Wal-Mart and buy a meter. You can get one for in the $30.00 range and it will include a few strips to test your blood sugar.

You really need to see a doctor and get all of the other issues addressed as well as a fasting blood test. Some of your symptoms are definitely that of diabetes.
