Okay for the past few days I have this fear of diabetes or insulin resistance.
It all started when I noticed the back of my neck fodls seem darker. I heard that it is a sign of insulin resistance or diabetes. :(
Well, I usually tilt my head in the mirror and try to see the back of it or I take a picture of the back of my neck and look at it.
My friends and family tell me that my neck looks completely normal. It seems that I am forcing myself to see something "dark" in my neck when they cannot even notice anything.
I am a 23 year old guy with light brown skin and I seem to notice many people of my color have the same thing as I think I have. My father is diabetic so I am really scared. I am overweight but I have been working recently to lose extra pounds.
I do not have the classic symptoms of diabetes like extreme hunger, unusual thirst, unusual thirst, frequent urination, etc.
All I have is this weird lightly dark color at the back of my neck that I claim to "see".
My last glucose test was done in 2011 and it was normal, but I feel that I have developed something sinister since then. :(
Now I decided to pay for my own blood test because I cannot anymore take this. I am a wreck. I am not scared of the procedure but the possibility that they might something bad is just driving me insane. Ugh I am a complete mess right now. :(
Somebody please help me get through the night. :(
