Hello! I am not a doctor but I think you should talk to a Doctor. You may have diabetes. Your physician will be able to run the appropriate test to see if you are a diabetic or not. I am sorry to say but from the sound of it, you are a diabetic.

You probably do have diabetes now. Or the blood pressure meds are causing this. I would check with your docor asap. :)
