a few problems vision, headaches, hunger, maybe diabetes?

hey thanks for taking time to read this. i was checked for diabetes 1 1/2 ago, and everything was ok. lately i have got headaches when i wake up and all day, im always hungry, not always thirsty but drink about 2 pints of coke with my dinner, i go to the toilet alot, diarhee ( cant spell it ) i sometimes have stomach cramps, i get floaters in my eyes, i see flashing lights, sometimes blurry, im always tired. i get about 8 -9 hours sleep and still tired, my joints r sore, and have had an xray for sciatica awaiting tests results, last week i didnt eat all day and had my dinner, and that night i thought i was gonna faint, i felt dizzy and was very disturbing, drank coke and was fine after a while. my mum has it, but not very bad. i would drink alot but some days i feel more thirsty than others, i also sweat alot. alot of symptoms, but i was wondering should i go to my doctor to suggest another check? i am also overweight, i just dont know.

Thanks anyway...

A lot of the symptoms you describe could be associated with diabetes, and i would suggest a visit with a doctor to get either a release from your worries or notice that the symptoms belong to something else. Good luck, bret

also, sometimes my right leg would go like lead, and it would be tingly. it would take a bit of effort to move it cause of the feeling. i dont know if this is the sciatica or something, but is tht maybe another sympton.
