Diabetes Forum - New to the Board. Am I Experiencing Symptoms of Diabietes?

I'm a 26 yeard-old male, 5'11, 160lbs........Ok let me start off by saying that this has been an extremely difficult month for me, all sorts of weird things are happening with my health and i've grown quite concerned. Bloodwork has come back and nothing appears out of the ordinary. Electrolyte levels were normal, sodium levels were normal. Blood sugar levels normal. The only thing that turned up in my allergin test was an extremely mild allergy to milk. I'm not satisfied though and here's why........

For the past 9 months or so i've been extremely fatigued. I've had a very stressful period over that time, alot of anxiety involved and depression, things i've been prone to for some time now, but I never sought treatment, wanted to work it out on m own. I work in the restaurant industry, for a while I was there 6 days a week nearly 10+ hours a day. My eating habits were poor, very spotty, and alot of times I wouldn't eat dinner before i'd go out at night with friends to bars and such after work. I wasn't getting a whole lot of sleep. I decided to get back into my workout regime and after a lil'while I started noticing a bloated feeling all the time. I started noticing other changes as well. For instance, my hair was starting to thin out more than I had ever noticed. Now I use a chemical relaxer for it once a month, but I had never had thinning problems before. My skin changed. I'm a metro kind of guy, so I keep my arms shaved and I never used to have problems doing this on a daily basis. Now, my skin is always too moist and I always get ingrown hairs. The skin is generally warm and i'm alot paler looking than I ever used to be.

Continuing on........I developed an overractive sweating problem sometime around my junior year in college, roughly 5 or 6 years ago. I mean it could be absolutely beautiful outside and i'd still sweat under my arms, got clammy hands alot. I get alot of ringing noises in my ears. A couple of months ago I went thru a period where my eyelid was fluttering on a daily basis. I also noticed in that same time frame that i'd wake up feeling extremely anxious all the time and at one point my heart beat started feeling different, almost like a pounding drum in my chest. I thought perhaps it might be due to those nights I was out with friends and we'd have a mixed drink which had energy drink in it, not to mention I was drinking one redbull prior to my workout (3 to 4 days a week).

I think the thing that scares me most is that now my eyesight is starting to blur. I'm still find reading things closeup, but my farsightedness has decreased considereably. I used to be the kind of guy who could read streets signs a quarter of a mile down the road at night. Now when i'm driving at night, lights are blurry and I can't read streets signs clearly until I get close to them. As of late, my eyes are extremely dry and sometimes they appear very irritated.

About a month ago I went to a wedding with a girl I was dating I felt like I was having an attack of some sort. I spent the majority of the night feeling, extremely flush, lightheaded, and ready to pass out. I had a bit of a pain on my left-mid section as well. Two weeks after that I proceeded to get kind of ill, prolly spent a week or so feeling nautious, with reocurring headaches. Moreover, i've had two very significant migraine attacks in the past couple of months. At work for the past month and a half i'd spend nearly the entire afternoon lightheaded, feeling like I could pass out standing up.

As of late my calves and hamstrings are constantly cramping up, i've actually gotten charlie horses consistently in those same areas over the past couple of years, especially when getting up in the morning. My mouth has been pretty dry lately and I feel thirsty quite a bit. I use the bathroom more than I ever have, sometimes after only one glass of something to drink. I should also say that over that past couple of months i've consistently gotten cravings for something sweet after my meals. Furthermore I have devloped a slight tingling/numbinging senstation in my right big toe, on occasional shooting pain in my right hand's pinky, as well as a shooting pain in my right lower hip where I assume the siatic nerve is.

Does all of this equate to diabetes? I actually woke up to hbo's real sports today and I saw a piece they did on hyponatremia. Now I will say that 8 months ago when I started up my workout again, I was drinking tons of water in that hour and a half I was at the gym. I'm talking the huge, long bottles. In some ways it kind of became a compulsive habit, inbetween sets i'd drink water, prolly filling up that bottle at least 3 times during my visits to the gym. When i'd get home I be urinating up a storm. Not to mention I drink quite a bit of water while at work. Could maybe I have caused myself damage?

Like I said, i've grown concerned, well let's be honest - scared. I've always been the guy with no allergies, never sick, except for the time I had mono during my freshman year in college. I don't feel like "me" anymore and I need to fix whatever is going on. I have another meeting with my doctor tomorrow morning. Thank you for your time.
