Get a fasting finger prick test at a pharmacy as a starting point.

Are you scared of your GP or what he might find?

Diabetes is nothing to be scared of and the sooner you have a diagnosis the better for two reasons:-

1. If you do not have it your mind will be at rest

2. If you do you can start dealing with the changes in lifestyle to get it under control ands avoid any future possible complications.

Good luck,.might.not even be diabetes but gp will be able to do tests to find what is causing you problems. if it is diabetes, there is a children and teens section to talk to other people of similar age, make sure u report back here though lol
