You'll need to establish a relationship with a local physician who can examine you and run tests to determine your current state of health. If you do have medical issues, they should be treated. Your fears of medical complications re vaccination are unfounded. You need to discuss all your concerns with your physician.

You describe symptoms consistent with health related anxiety that may become disabling. That is not recognized as a medical exemption from getting the vaccine. You should discuss all with your primary care doc, nobody else can legally issue an exemption on your behalf.

Getting Covid infection will complicate your life a million times more than taking the vaccine. Get Covid vaccine. See a doctor and get tested for diabetes.

Because your health condition is poor you are at greater risk of contracting COVID than most people. If you want to live a healthy life than your best decision is to get a vaccination for COVID An exemption may be your last in life.
