See your MD: The only way to really know if your symptoms are related to diabetes is to make an appointment with your doctor, who will evaluate you and run the appropriate tests, such as a fasting blood glucose level, hemoglobin a1c, an perhaps a glucose tolerance test. You should also have your eyes examined to understand where your visual symptoms arise from. Hopefully this helps.
