it's a thought i've been thinking for about 3 years. i'm not sure exactly when i became cued into the idea, but it has definitely been a nagging presence in the back of my mind for quite some time. maybe even 4 years.
regardless, i think i have diabetes. i'm thin. i weigh about 138 pounds (sidenote: why is pounds abbreviated lbs.?) and am approximately 6 feet 1 inches tall. actually, i consistently weigh 138 pounds and have been 6 feet 1 inches tall for at least 2 years. needless to say, this is a bit light. i'm not quite emaciated but am definitely thinner than svelt. i'm diabetes slender.
beyond the build, i'm always thirsty. always. not parched. not dehydrated. thirsty. i mean, i'm not always craaaaving something to drink, but i would never think a beverage was a bad idea. you put a glass of water in front of me, and i'll not only drink it but finish it, as well. i probably wouldn't even sip it. i'd drink it and have another. i'm diabetes thirsty.
so clearly i have that diabetes that makes you thin and thirsty. i'm certain of it. there are two types of diabetes. aren't there? one makes you thin and thirsty; the other makes you... fat and moist? i know i heard this somewhere. i couldn't have just made something like that up on my own. well, if there is a diabetes that makes you thin and thirsty, i have it... maybe.
webmd.com, here i come because god knows i'd never go to a real doctor about my possibly made-up disorder.
this is why we have the internet, so crazies like me can self-diagnose.
