go to wal mart, buy a glucose mater and some test strips... and test your blood sugars before you eat, 2 hours after your lunch and when you're feeling tired.

If you dont have a doctor, you can do your own initial tests with a simple daily tests.

As a non diabetic you should see number between 72 and 126. much higher than these then you are likely to be diabetic (but remember it depends on when you test. leave it at least 2 hours after a meal)
