---------------------------------------------------

There is only ONE way to tell "how close" you are to diabetes -- take the necessary blood tests from your doctor.

You will need:
At least TWO Fasting Blood Sugar Level tests. you MUST be fasting (no food or drink , except water, for at least 8 hours) before taking the test. You need TWO tests on TWO different days.

An A1C test.

A Glucose tolerance test. You MUST be fasting! this test take 3-5 hours.

ONLY after taking these tests can the doctor tell if you are diabetic or not.

the SYMPTOMS of diabetes do NOT show up until you are already sick, By the time you have symptoms, you ARE diabetic. Once you have diabetes, there is NO CURE, and you must fight it for the rest of your life.

the BEST thing is to PREVENT diabetes by eating a healthy diet, getting exercise, and maintaining a "normal" weight.
