I am 13 years old and lately i have been showing symptoms of type 1 diabetes.

I am always thirsty
I am always hungry
I have to go to the bathroom alot,
My skin is really dry in places.

My grandmother has type 1 and my mom just has hypo by itself. The doctor gave me a meter just to do a home test and my blood sugar always stayed between 140-160. We have tp give the meter back...so. Sometimes i feel really shaky and weak. I am getting tested soon. Does anyone have any idea what this is?

Could sound like Type 1, but lets hope its not. My symptoms was peeing at least every two hours, drinking 5 - 6 litres of liquid every day and my vision was rapidly getting worse.
