unexplained weight loss

Hi
I gave up drinking alcohol in march this yr.
I have now lost near on 3 stone with no effort at all..I now am getting very strange symptoms ie: unexplained bruising. Extreme thirst. Tiredness. Strangely an inability to sleep. I do take medication for depression and agoraphobia. Plus the worst is the constipation. Which I have been prescribed senna. Had many blood tests done all normal..is it worth checking for diabetes.
Many thanks

Re: unexplained weight loss

Even though I am not a medical professional, i would say yes get tested for diabetes. The longer you wait the more damage it can cause to your body!
