My father has diabetes, is there a chance I will get diabetes?

Diabetes does have a genetic link. If one or more members of your family have diabetes, then your chances of developing diabetes are high. 

Studies indicate that diabetes tends to occur in 30% of people who already have family members with diabetes. 

In the meantime, you should continue to get your blood sugars tested regularly, change your diet and watch your weight. The lower the weight, the less likely you will develop diabetes.
