Symptoms of Diabetes include frequent urination,increased hunger and thirst,Itching private parts,Burning feet and also numbness of foot. As you are having risk,you can get Glucose tolerance test done every year.If the test results are normal you can repeat it every year. For prevention of Diabetes,follow healthy life style with diet less in refined sugars and carbohydrates,rich in fiber and less in fat. Exercise 150 mins a week. Hope my advise will be of help to you. You can get back to me with test results.
