I need to get tested for diabetes but i dont have health insurance?

Should i just go to the emergency room and tell them all my symptoms or what

You surely have a friend that has diabetes . Ask them to check you with their glucose meter. Fast for 8 hours or more and check. Blood Glucose Levels (Check Regularly) * A "fasting" blood glucose level of 100 mg/dL (100 milligrams of glucose for every 10th of a liter) is normal. * A "fasting" blood glucose level of 100-125 mg/dL may indicate "pre-diabetes." * A "fasting" blood glucose level of 126 mg/dL or higher may indicate diabetes. * A blood glucose level -- after eating -- of 180 mg/dL is considered normal. Good luck
