What does this mean

[texygirl]

I went to the doctor last week and complained about not feeling well. They did a test and stated that I had Ketones in my urine and stated they wanted me to have blood drawn so that they could see what was going on. She asked me if I had been skipping meals. I stated that I had only had a small amount to eat that day but had not been skipping meals. I was called this week to come back in and a nurse earlier told me that if my tests were normal they would just send a letter. My question is does it neccessarily mean that I have diabetes if I had ketones spilling into my urine on a day that I had barely eaten. I have looked all over for answers and everything I see states that this is a sign of diabetes.
I am a 22 year old in the normal weight range that is physically active weekly. I do not have the most healthy eating habits but I have been working on that lately and attempting to lose weight by cutting out the things that are unhealthy and exersicing more.

They did not tell me what tests they were running they just said " because you have ketones dumping into your urine we would like to run some tests to see what is happening". So I don't know.

"...nurse earlier told me that if my tests were normal..." What test? Did you have a fasting glucose test, blood sugar, urine glucose, glucose tolerance (GTT)? A hemoglobin A1c (HgbA1c) that most doctors use to determine whether the patient is pre-diabetic, a diabetic, or not at all. Answers to these question will help.
Your correction to diet and exercise will play a large part in staying healthy. Keep it up, you'll like yourself more and feel a whole lot better too.
