I was diagnosed in 1999 with it. I was constantly thirsty (drank more than a normal person does), tired, and urinated alot constantly had to pee, i also lost a ton of weight with out dieting etc... these are all signs that you could be diabetic. i found out for sure when i was hospitalized that year and when running blood tests they told me i was. they tried putting me on pills for it at first but that didnt help they then placed me on insulin.... Hope that you dont have it and good luck......
