Where can I get a quick free test in Essex?

Ideally in Chelmsford?

I seem to urinate a lot (although not loads and not at night) and often feel tired. Also some yeast issues that never seem to totally go away.

Was thinking that I should do a blood sugar test but do not want to buy a device or try to convince my GP to do one.

I am 37 and a bit overweight, although keep active with regular exercise.

only your doctor can make a diagnosis.
however lloyds chemist will do a fasting finger prick test for you and if its too high they will refer it onto your doctor.
I were worried I would go and see my gp.

some ASDA instore chemists do fasting tests - not sure if there is one in your area. - best to go to GP if you have concerns
