Clinics near me to treat diabetes
Millions of people suffer from diabetes. Although a complex health condition, it's treatable. How the disease affects a person differs from one to the other individual. Professional care should be focussed on addressing the condition as related to the specific patient and to ensure quality of life. To minimise the risk of the disease becoming life-threatening, it's imperative to have access to optimal professional healthcare and managing the condition at home according to the prescribed method.
Two main types of diabetes can be distinguished. Type 1 can develop at any stage of a person's life but becomes apparent as early as childhood. With this type of diabetes, the body doesn't produce enough insulin, requiring the patient to receive daily administering of insulin to maintain the right blood glucose level. In essence, this type of diabetes is an auto-immune health condition. The body itself destroys the pancreas cells. To manage the condition, insulin administration is essential. Although the condition cannot be cured, it can be managed to ensure a long and good quality of life.
Type 2 diabetes has symptoms similar to that of Type 1 diabetes, but is a condition that can be treated, and in some instances, cured by following the correct diet and lifestyle. It affects mostly adults and becomes more prevalent in the later stages of life. Prevention is key here. The good news is that it can be prevented through regular physical activity and a healthy diet. Early diagnosis is important to ensure quality of life.
Symptoms for both Type 1 & 2 include:
