I have type 1 diabetes, my sugars are normal ( 5.7 at the moment ) but I need to pee every half an hour, I've not been drinking more than normal so it can't be that. It's been like for just a day.
But I'm also tired all the time and my whole body is aching. Which has been going on for 2 weeks now.
Does anybody know what this could be?
Thank you

Can't comment on type 1

But sounds like a visit to your gp is called for...

Hope you get seen soon and get the help,you need ......
 
Have you checked for ketones? You can get starvation ketones if you haven't eaten enough.
I think you can get those if you're bloods are normal but I'm not sure.

Don't worry too much, I get this from time to time too. It could be a water infection xx

Try not to worry, if your bloods are under control then it probably isn't related to your diabetes, ask the nurse to check your thyroid too
 
It's not a uti ! God knows what it could be!

Had blood tests done yesterday so will be getting the results tomorrow!
Fingers crossed it's not anything too serious !

Fingers crossed for you DiaBethic95 - let us know how you get on.
 
Got my blood results back, turns out my thyroid is all over the place ! So I'm now taking tablets for it every day. All my other results where fine though, so no other worries.
Thank you all for your support, should be feeling better in a few days
