I'm afraid I'm either diabetic, hypoglycemic, or a hypochondriac

Some background: I'm 20yrs old and about 15lbs overweight, and have been overweight most of my life. The most I've ever weighed though was 30lbs over. I've never been very conscience about my diet until this past year. Before that I tended to be a binge eater, skipping meals and then over eating late at night to make up for the day, yes I know it doesn't really work that way. A few years ago my dad was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, his grandma also died from diabetes at a young age. My dad didn't change his habits and has now had to start taking oral medicine. Around this time last year I started to suspect that I might have a problem too because I started to become sensitive to my habit of skipping meals. I started to feel low energy, getting shaky and dizzy when I didn't eat regularly. So I tried to eat regularly and more healthy, but with my job at a restaurant it makes it difficult and I'm the type of person that hates taking breaks. I feel guilty even if I'm off the clock. I went to the doctor for those symptoms plus some others (sore glands, fever, falling asleep really easily) and found that I had been working my full time job being sick with mono. I still worked my full time job I just took the semester off of school. Even well after I should be recovered from my mono I still have the sensitivity to eating. It seems to be getting worse, I now try and eat about ever 4hrs and try to stay away from the sugars. If I don't, I start to feel sick. Then today I noticed another symptom of diabetes. Yesterday night when I urinated it seemed to smell really sweet (enough so that I noticed), but I thought it might just have to do with the bowl of honey nut cheerios I had grabbed for breakfast. Today, I've eaten nothing sweet and otherwise had some dark chocolate, and my urine smelled sweet again. That's when I remembered that its a possible symptom of diabetes. So I looked it up and several medical sites confirmed it. Does this all seem like a reasonable conclusion? That I have type 2 diabetes at the age of 20?!
