Possible Type 1 Diabetes
I'm 13 years old, and type 1 diabetes runs on both sides of my family. My grandfathers on both sides and my uncle has type 1. I feel like I've been going to the bathroom and been a lot hungrier than usual and feel tired a lot. Is it possible I have type one diabetes? I haven't noticed any weigh loss, but I am already skinny and take care of myself. Could I have type one diabetes, or am I too old? Helpp!!

Your fine! Quit worrying!
Cyberchondria is a colloquial term for hypochondria in individuals who have researched medical conditions on the Internet. The media and the Internet often contribute to hypochondria, as articles, TV shows and advertisements regarding serious illnesses such as cancer and multiple sclerosis (some of the common diseases hypochondriacs think they have) often portray these diseases as being random, obscure and somewhat inevitable. Inaccurate portrayal of risk and the identification of non-specific symptoms as signs of serious illness contribute to exacerbating the hypochondriac’s fear that they actually have that illness.
