Your : Your symptoms could be consistent with diabetes mellitus. But you would need to have a laboratory evaluation to determine if that is the cause of you symptoms.

These : These symptoms can be suggestive of diabetes. The way to know for sure would be to have a lab test done. You can either have a fasting blood sugar drawn or a nonfasting blood test called a "hemoglobin a1c." if you want to check your own blood sugar at home, you could buy a device ("glucometer") at your local drugstore and check your own sugar when you are fasting (haven't eaten in 8 hours). A fasting blood sugar less than 100 is normal. A fasting blood sugar of 100-125 suggests "prediabetes" and a fasting blood sugar of 126 or higher suggests diabetes (although you would want to have a blood test by your doctor for confirmation). Hope this is helpful!
