Please Help!!
(Nurse for 21 Years) Before you go and say I don't need anymore children till I am properly educated etc etc, I am. I graduated almost 2 years early at the top of my class, and am not far from graduating with my associates THEN I'm going on to pursue my bachelors. I don't own you an explanation, but don't be rude when you don't know anything about me.

  1. Nurse For 21 Years - No one here can tell you what you may have with your mention of just one or two random symptoms. If your doctor did tests, just wait and see what they say. Patience.
    By the way, thats enough babies until your are educated enough to support them properly.

  2. Gayle G. - Those are the symptoms of diabetes but you'll just have to wait till Monday to find out! Hope you're not a diabetic......if you are it's not that bad. I have a friend who has type 1 and she's always happy and smiling. Yes, at first, you just want to die, but it gets better, you'll get over it. I can't speed up the blood test results sorry.
