I've recently (just over a month ago) been diagnosed with T2 diabetes. I haven't told my family yet. (I get to share this wonderful tidbit with them when I visit home for Thanksgiving this week).

One of the questions I am expecting them to ask is what this means for their chances of developing diabetes also. I mean, we all share the same genetic background (which includes alot more diabetes than I was aware of until recently), so if I've got it.. so could they, right?

Does anybody know the answer to that question? If you have diabetes, what are the chances that your siblings will develop it also?

Thanks for any help,

Todd
