I have noticed in the last 6-9 months, that I am drinking fluids more frequently, going to the bathroom more often, and I will usually sleep for 9 or 10 hours a night. I also get dizzy spells pretty often. 2 or 3 times a week, and in the last couple months they tend to last for a longer period of time than before. I will sometimes even get so dizzy that I will feel faintish, sweaty, hot, and unsteady. I've never noticed anything in particular that brings it on, but it's usually just out of nowhere. I never thought about all these symptoms being linked until I was talking to a friend one day about finding out that her husband was diabetic. I always thought that I drank a lot of water because I smoke, and I go to the bathroom 15 times a day because I drink a lot of water. I am only 24 years old, but diabetes runs in my family, and I was just curious if I should be concerned or not. I went to my doctor and I just asked him about the dizziness, so he tested me for anemia, which I'm not. The results of that test were normal. Any useful info would be appreciated...even if it's to tell me to stop being pararnoid!!
