Could you have diabetes and not know it?

There are 18.2 million Americans with diabetes -- and nearly one-third of them (or 5.2 million people) do not know it! Take this test to see if you are at risk for having diabetes. Diabetes is more common in African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. If you are a member of one of these ethnic groups, you need to pay special attention to this test.

To find out if you are at risk, answer the following questions as they apply to you, then click the "CALCULATE" button to run the test and view your score.
