| i looked up my symptoms when they got really bad and diabetes came up left right and center. When i told my mum about my symptoms as well she immediatly said i could have diabetes.
So when i went into the clinic i said i thought i might be diabetic... and looking like i did (very ill, thin and pale) they tested me almost straight away... 5 minutes later i was on a drop of some sort then spent the next three days in hospital.
So i did know. so i wasn't shocked... but it was still quite upsetting the first hour or so of realisation.
