how much do genetics play a part with diabetes.
i have just been diagnosed type 2 or they think is late onset type 1, i have 2 uncles one type 1 one type 1 and a half brother who is pre diabetic, i have a step daughter whose type 1 was diagnosed 12 years ago at around 2ish, my daughter ( she is 3, and half sister to my step daughter) has been wettng herself badly over past 3 months now after havng been dry since start of year, initially she had a urine infection had antibiotics but carried on wetting herslef since. she also drinks a huge amount and through nite. she has had clear urine tests since infection but nothng it stopping the wetting. i took her back to gps again ths week who found trace of blood in her urine and something else, not glucose ketones or protine not sure what it was, shes back on antiboics but seems to be more of a precaution and her urine has been sent to lab. should i be confidant that there being no glucose and urine mean that she is not diabetic and its not the cause of her wetting etc. i have done 2 random blood glucose readings last week. one was 7,8 on was 8,9. is it ok for a tollder to be over 7 like that?
my oh is very concerned as they had such a hard time getting his daughter diagnosed all those years ago when she finally was diagnosed she was very very thin and very ill, x
