Some symptoms and/or signs can raise a suspicion for Diabetes although most patients does not show any. The only way to know or confirm the diagnosis by testing for fasting and post prandial blood sugar with glycated hemoglobin levels.

I'm 17 and I've been worrying about my height lately. I'm around 5 feet 9 inches, but all my friends seem taller, like around 5ft 10 to 6ft. I kinda stopped getting taller when I was 14. I do lift weights, though nothing too intense. Is there anything I could do to possibly grow a couple more inches? I'd love to hit around 5 feet 11 or even 6 feet. Any advice would be great.
