do you think you'll get diabetes?

[HungryForCereal]

honestly, i wont even be surprised if i go to the doctors and they tell me that i have freaking diabetes. i have been consuming a lot of sugar lately to distress and tbh it kinda works. i eat stuffs like cupcakes, chocolates, puddings, blueberry cookies, gummy worms and all those kind of sweet stuffs. luckily i have a high metabolism so i cant really get fat from all these sweet stuffs which is such a blessing! anyway, do you think you'll get diabetes one day?

 

[Fleshy]

I voted no, but honestly I have no idea. There's loads of things that can lead to diabetes, not just sugar, i'm not the healthiest person ever either, so who knows what'll happen in 40/50 years, even less? Diabetes is much scarier than it seems, i've seen my gran with it, it can lead to blindness and many other things, so honestly i hope i don't

yeah, diabetes (specially if you've had it for a while and it isn't treated properly) can lead to serious eye problems, as well as kidney problems, blood vessel problems and is linked to heart disease and things, most people don't seem to realise that it can actually be quite a serious thing, not fun..

 

[Jared:3]

No I barkey eat anything, so no

 

[TheEliteEmpoleon]

I said no because I have this weird thing where whenever I eat I get hiccups so I have started to not eat anything.

 

[focus]

yes because most of my dad's side have diabetes and im like 90% my dad (like heredity-wise idk how to explain) so yeah i'll most probably get it because of that

that kinda sucks...

 

[TheGreatBrain]

I eat a lot of sugar and my dad and his dad died from it. They both had to go on dialysis and lost their legs. I hadn't really thought about getting it, but now I think I could get it now that you brought it up Lol.

There's no history of diabetes in my family so I probably won't get it. People in my family eat a lot of sugar too and they're all fine luckily.

[Cudon]

It seems to run in my family? Not 100% sure, since I don't consider my mother a credible medical source, but apparently? If it's true then yeah, probably getting it.

 

[Aquari]

im dangerously close, i already have those dark marks on my neck which is a precursor ;-;

 

[Twisterheart]

I'm not sure but I wouldn't be surprised if I did

 

[ZebraQueen]

Yes, you can get diabetes regardless of how much you eat. There's quite a few factors that can lead to it, not just eating lots and lots of sugary food

 

[enchilada]

you're assuming i don't already have it

 

[Bwazey]

I'm grateful my family has no past relations with diabetes.

But I tend to eat healthier than most people, so I would be pretty shocked if I was told I had diabetes.

 

[promised freedom]

My family doesn't have a history of it, and I don't currently have any risk factors so...hopefully not?

 

[Byngo]

probably. it runs on both sides of my family, and 1 of my 3 sisters have diabetes.
