u can diabetes any time of ur life usually the symptoms for diabetes are pain in thigh, burning sensation while peeing, all of a sudden loosing of ur eyesight, or if u r obese then its a really good chance. There are like strips out there where u can check it buy ur self glucose level should be between 90 to 110 and for kidney infection best thing u should go to ur doctor to get it checked.

No one is too young to have diabetes but these are symptoms of a urinary tract infection, not diabetes. Why have you not seen a doctor?

UNfortunately diabetes knows no limits on age. Do yourself a favor and get a blood test and find out for sure.
Good luck

These are not signs of diabetes. Ive been a diabetic for over 20 yrs.. Diabetes makes you hungry, thirsty, tired, weight lost,perhaps blurred vision if its effecting the eyes,numbness in feet arms and hands,more severe diabetes can make you have shooting pain in limbs also make you feel like you have a hot spot in feet. I suggest you see a Dr to see what the problem is..oh and age doesn’t matter… children have diabetes also, dont mess with your health get to a dr!

Sounds like a possible kidney infection. Go see a doctor.
Type 2 diabetes is hitting people that are as young as 4 years old now, and type 1 can hit even earlier. So if you are posting here you aren’t too young.
Diabetes isn’t likely to be your problem, but ask for a blood glucose test from your doctor (after any infection is cured) if you are concerned.

Diabetes can develope at any age, from small children to seniors.
Be safe. Go see a doctor.

If your family has a history of it, then I would get a simple blood test. Most likely you are too young however. The average person does not see it show up until their later 20’s.
It sounds like something more simple, but needing to be checked out. Get to a doctor quickly before you do internal harm to yourself. You are young enough to heal quickly.
Good luck my friend.
