I am having some of the common symptoms of diabetes & wanted some advice?
I am 14, and i’m extremly athletic. I am not over weight, i’m the normal size for my age. But there has been a history of adulthood diabeties in my family. Lately I’ve been very thirsty all the time, which has lead to more frequent bathroom trips. Also I’ve had stomach problems & frequent nausia. My fingers don’t really tingle and I haven’t had any of the other symptoms. Thank you for your help it’s greatly appreciated.

It’s very unlikely that you have diabetes. You’re thirsty because it is getting hot outside.
Diabetes in a teenager is dramatic. You’d be very sick. So sick that your parents would notice that something is wrong.

Adult Diabetes (Type 2) is more common in people 40-60 years old. Your family history is something worth mentioning to you doctor. But it doesn’t sound like type 1 diabetes.
These sound like some of the signs of untreated T1 diabetes to me. Want to know for sure? Ask one of your diabetic relatives to take your blood glucose reading. It’s easy, and you’ll have the results in 5 seconds.
Can’t find anyone to test you? Go see a doctor. The tests are simple and they should be able to tell you immediately.
T1 diabetes is serious enough that it’s better to have it checked out and be wrong than let it go if you really have it.
