How did your diabetes first start out?

I was first diagnosed with type 2 diabetes when I went to the hospital with a blood sugar of 609 a week before this last thanksgiving. But now found out that I don’t have type 2, but have type 1

I was diagnosed 5 days after my first birthday because I couldn’t stop vomiting and peeing. I lost like a third of my body weight and they thought I had leukemia because I was so young and they couldn’t believe I had diabetes. When they checked my BG it was over 800 and I was still conscious. My mom saved my life by picking the doctor up by his shirt and saying check their blood-sugar!! There isn’t any type one in the family but there is a ton of type two. Most doctors think that I got a flu or virus that attacked my pancreas. I’ve been collecting other ailments that stem from the diabetes for 26 years. I have been reading that people who have had Covid have been being diagnosed with pre diabetes so I’m wondering if it isn’t attacking the pancreas in certain people as well.

I've been very tired for the past 3 days and very thirsty today. I've dank over 130 oz.

I was 12 when I got diabetes. At first, I couldn’t get enough to drink (classic high symptom), then I got tired and weak (DKA) and started vomiting. My parents took me to the ER and I was diagnosed.
