depends on the type.

I assume you’re older? And possibly overweight? or pregnant?
frequent urine, and being thirsty are two signs. If you’re drinking 3 gallons of water a day and still thirsty, you have a problem.
Type 2 is linked to poor diet and lack of exercise.

If you’re worried about getting it, try to cut back on sugar, sweets, junk food (yes mcdonalds is junk, so is all fast food) and try to increase exercise. Doesn’t have to be strenuous, this can be as simple as walking 30 minutes a day.

If you’re still relatively young, you might have type 1. Symptoms are the same as above, except with rapid weight loss depite eating heaps and mental deterioration.

Can you go by yourself to the hospital? If not, get a friend or a family member like a cousin, uncle or something to drive you there.

Can’t you just make your mom listen to you? If you’re her child then she must care about you if you’re in pain.

Diabetes is extremely bad for you. You have to take a shot and check your blood pressure before you eat. Blindness is what happened to my Grandma because she has diabetes. Also you can lose control of your arm, or leg. There is no cure for diabetes but the best thing to do is stay away from sugar! If you can’t resist then only take things with just a little bit of sugar! If you don’t have it too much sugar can cause the diabetes. I wish you the best and hope you don’t have it
