I was diagnosed when i was 15, last year.

I had been having the symptoms for about two months before we used my father's blood sugar meter to test myself. I actually even pissed in my bed a few times and i was drinking about 11 cups of water a day, not including the drinking fountains in school. I was also getting weaker, my stamina was deteriorating, and i was falling asleep right when i got home from school. When we did finally test it, the meter read "hi" just like that, So we knew it was over 600. My father rushed me up to the ER (He's a Type 2 diabetic by the way) and there my blood sugar read to be 1032 by their meters.
