Worried about potentially having diabetes

[Jacksongillbert77]

I’m really bad worrying about if I may have diabetes my urination has been increasing lately to now me having to going to the bathroom 7-8 times a day (8am-10pm) I took a urine strip test which came back as negative of any glucose but am still worried so have ordered a proper diabetes test note I suffer from health anxiety which I would normally take into account on symptoms but I doubt it could effect something like how many times I urinate in a day I was wondering if anyone had advice for me.

How long has this been going on?

Any other medical conditions?

Could you be drinking more liquids?

Could it be urinary tract infection?

It’s not been long a few days maybe

I have no other medical conditions I don’t think I’ve been drinking more than usual and how could I tell if it was an infection

See a GP. A urine test will tell right away if it's a urinary tract infection.

All the best!
