Default Does this sound like diabetes?

In 2 different schools I attend students practice capillary blood draws on my fingers. I've had about 40 draws in a year. For the last 3 years my random blood sugar has been around 100, didn't matter if I'm lowcarb or not.

After I went on an inhaled steroids for asthma my random blood sugar has been a solid 105 for the last 2 years.

I began having stress associated with the school, I break out in sweats, sometimes just walking into the school. Over 5 weeks I watched my blood sugar climb every week 105, 111, 121, 132, 152. I got my doctor to do a physical my fasting blood sugar was 101 but they lost the HbA1c results and my thyroid test. I saw my doctor yesterday but she wouldn't redo the test, she's sending me to an endocrinologist- this will take a month or so to approve and it's mostly for my thyroid. I haven't happened to see any endos that have been of any use to me in 17 years of hypothyroidism.

I don't know if one has anything to with the other but I also have anemia.

Are endos any help for diabetes? Does diabetes come on really fast like this typically?
