Default Are these possible symptoms of diabetes?

I'm 14 and after reading a lot of stuff on the internet, i am worried that i might have diabetes. I'm 5'4" and 105 pounds.
-I've been eating like crazy and am always hungry, but i haven't lost or gained any weight
-I have to go to run to the bathroom a lot
-I get really thirsty, especially during basketball practice or when i'm working out.
-Last week i vomited for no reason
-My feet, legs and hands "fall asleep" a lot.
-My dentist says i could possibly be developing a gum disease ,but i have pretty good oral hygiene
-I have mild acne, which takes a long time for a popped pimple to heal.
-Sometimes when im laying down or exercising everything goes black for about 1 or 2 seconds
-i have multiple swollen lymph nodes in my neck(my mom took me to the doctor in february, but the doctor said nothing was wrong, even though all she did was feel one lymph node and measure it.)
-Sometimes i feel weak in the knees, but that only lasts a couple of minutes.

BTW my mom is going to call my doc tomo

It's a symptom of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). It doesn't mean you have diabetes, especially if it's your only symptom. People can have blood sugar issues/low blood sugar without being diabetic.

Default What are the symptoms of diabetes??

and can it occur in a 15 year old? my mom says that i may have diabetes because i eat a lot but i dont have any physical activities. I am too lazy and my body is too stiff. And i easily get tired. Its not that i am always eating, but i do eat something after every 2 hours, mostly chocolate or chips.

I am a girl. 5 feet 7 inches tall and i weigh 73 kgs.

Then, i do climb the stairs and sometimes swim and walk 3 kms, but not regularly. Could all this result in my having diabetes?
And yes, i hardly drink water because i dont feel thirsty except at night, when the whole day has passed without water.
I have been dehydrated 3 times.
