HI, when i was 6 i was diganosed woth diabetis. My whole life i have been short tempered, i cant finish what i start, no matter how hard i want to or try to. I cant pay attention in class for long, even when I have full intentions of doing so. But in spite of all this, I am on the A or B honnor roll every quarter, I am the best reader in my whole school, and I am in advanced math and lit. Is it possible i have ADHD? or somepthing else along those lines? my email is YYYY@YYYY , thank you!-S

Dear-thanks for using HCM . You might have ADHD due to what you described at school.Patients with ADHD have average or above average intelligence,they do very good at school but fight with concentration's problems,making them have low grades sometimes due to this.Diabetes does not have any relationship with this condition.You should have a basic neurological test for ADHD and will benefit from treatment. Medication will help you to focus better in your daily activities,school,work and social life. You should talk to your doctor about this and will get the referral for a neurologist.I hope my advise has been useful and feel free to contact me for any medical questions that you might have.
