Hi karen i have type 2 diabetes as well as RA at the moment i have to control it with diet my sister has diabetes and has to inject so i know about diabetes as well. If you are worried ask your doctor and you will have to have a fasting blood test and they will see what your blood sugar levels have been for the last few months and they they will be able to tell you if you have it hope tjhat helps x
