Dear Cyril,
Please check your blood sugar levels, from your description it is likely that you have developed diabetes.
Please check your fasting blood sugar (FBS), post prandial blood sugar (PPBS), and HbA1C.
Eat a healthy and balanced diet, exercise regularly. If the sugar levels are not controlled by diet and exercise, you will have to start with medication.
