The frequent urination comes from the body tryting tto digest the nbodies fat cell for energy since you are not using insulin to digest injested food, thus the weight loss. You may also notice excessive thirst and fatigue. These are symptoms of type one dibetes which doesn't have as much of a family history ar type two. Type two used to be called adult onset and type one juvenile.
It is, however, important to know that eating does not cause Type I or Insulin Dependent Diabetes. Type 2 Diabetes is often caused by obesity and overeating to the point that the body becomes unable to produce enough insulin to cover the food being eaten. In those situations, losing weight and exercising can often eliminate the diabetes. Oral medications are given to increase the production of insulin or to increase the bodies ability to absorb and utilize the insulin.
In response to your question several things come to mind. I believe that everyone with Type 1 diabetes needs to be totally aware of what is happening with their blood sugar all the time. Alcohol can inhibit this ability for one thing. Also, the symptoms of too much alcohol and hypoglycemia can be similar and you do not want anyone to confuse a low blood sugar for being drunk as they might not give you the proper treatment.
When your blood sugar level starts to drop, your liver steps in.
I have type 2 diabetes and have for 11 yrs, I thought I had diabetes for a while before I was actually diagnosed and not knowing enough, did not press my doctors reasoning for not thinking my higher blood sugar readings were not significant enough. He did not do a Hemoglobin A1c test. Just a blood glucose which was showing high blood sugar readings for some time,and he for whatever reason didnt think it signficant enough.

Between December 2002 and October 2005, 189 non-diabetic patients were treated with Peg-IFN-alpha/Riba, of whom five developed type 1 DM (2.6%), three type 2 DM (1.6%) and one an indeterminate type of DM. Classical symptoms of DM were present in three patients who developed DM shortly after cessation of Peg-IFN-alpha/Riba. In the other patients, symptoms of DM were either indistinguishable from side effects caused by Peg-IFN-alpha/Riba or absent.
m not a physician, but the symptoms you describe are classic symptoms of Type 1 diabetes. It is also not uncommon that hypoglycemia preceeds diabetes.
Please give a call to your physician right away. If you do have diabetes, you can avoid allowing things to get worse, and you can avoid a hospital stay if you act quickly now. Drink plenty of water to flush your system of ketones and do your best to avoid concentrated sweets (like you had to do for hypoglycemia).
I believe you are probably inquiring about your numbness because of neuropathy which is normally related to type 1 or 2 diabetes. Your symptoms are obviously a cause for concern and I would seek out doctors who can give you a proper diagnoses. I can't believe that you have been going through this for 15 years without an answer. I don't know if it is a circulation problem or something else.
You may not know that a dry mouth which can feel like thirst is one of the symptoms of hypoglycemia as well as diabetes. And logic tells us that if your mouth is dry and you are drinking lots of fluids, you will urinate often. I am a tightly-controlled type 1 diabetic, and the dry mouth feeling that I get when my glucose is low is almost identical to the sensation of having high blood sugar.
Our 10 year old daughter was diagnosed with type one diabetes approximately eight months ago. From time to time, she has stomach pains - most frequently in the evening before bedtime. Her blood sugar levels at that time vary but are usually in the 100 to 175 range. She is not constipated nor does she have gas. Any thoughts or inpu would be helpfult. Is this common?
