I read that approximately 590,000 in the UK don't know they have Diabetes, it made me wonder how most Type 2's discover they have it, my discovery was a tad bizarre in that my daughter in law saw a well known local medium who told her ' get your Mother in law to get tested for Diabetes'...... now Diabetes runs in my family in fact my sister died in 1966 of kidney failure due to undiagnosed Diabetes so I knew I was at risk.....at the time the medium gave her advice I was working in a private school that had a matron, as I was chatting to her one day I told her what the medium had said so she tested my blood which was high, she told me to come back the next day for a fasting test and it was still high so she suggested I see my doctor, I had no symptoms but no doubt eventually I would have which would have sent me to the doc, the rest is history
