What are the best ways to reduce the risk of getting type 1 diabetes?
I’m really scared that I’m going to get type 1 diabetes. I match two of the symtoms of it: extreme hunger and fatigue. Type 1 diabetes runs in my family, my sister, and great grandparents had it.
If it runs in your family, you should probably go and get tested for it.
Other symptoms that I experienced include frequent thirst, frequent bathroom visits-like every hour and you feel like you can’t hold it if you want to-, and vomiting after a high carb and high sugar meal-such as a chocolate shake and McDonald’s for me-, and extreme weight loss.
You can go to your doctor so they can check your urine, no blood drawn. Please, don’t wait. DIabetes is very serious but don’t be scared, your doctors can offer all kinds of support.
