I was tested for diabetes about 2 years
ago , I had all the symptoms and there is
strong family history of diabetes.
Everything was fine, and eventually I
stopped feeling symptomatic. But lately I
have been feeling ill again. I have been
extremely dizzy and feeling faint. My
hands and feet fall asleep easily and I
have frequent urination along with other
things. I know I have way too much sugar
in my diet, and although I have always
been in shape, I recently stopped
excercising and have gained some weight.
Should I see about getting tested again
for diabetes or is it too soon?

Yeah I think you should definitely get
tested. You seem to have the symptoms.
Other symptoms may be eating more but
losing weight, feeling thirstier than
usual etc. Why take a chance? People die
of complications from untreated diabetes
such as kidney problesm and stuff. My
grandmother delayed getting treatment and
now she has very poor eyesight in both her
eyes. So dont take a chance. Diabtetes
is curable so go to your Dr. That's just
my advice- keep me posted. :d
