DIABETES: NEW STANDARDS
OF
DIAGNOSIS
AND
PERSONAL HEALTHCARE
Diabetes
is getting
more
and
more
common.
-
an incidence rate of
around 8%
of
the population is
now
commonplace.
Compared
with
non-
diabetics, diabetics
have
5
times
the risk
of having
coronaries;
17
times
the
risk
of having
kidney
failure;
25
time the risk
of having bilateral
blindness
and
10
times
the
risk of having necrosis of the
lower
limbs.
Hence, early diagnosis and
effective treatment is
vital. ln
normal
subjects, the 75
g
glucose tolerance test
(taking
75 g
ol glucose and taking blood
for
glucose levels
at 2
hours) should
return a reading
of
<1
1.1
mmol/L.
For
those >45 years of age, the test should
be repeated
eve(y 2 years, even
if
the
results
test normal.
ln
case
of obesity,
direct relatives of diabetics, history of
giving birth to large babies, hyperten-
sion
or
high triglyceride levels,
etc,
should
have even more
frequent testing.
The
risk
of having complications
is
pro-
portional
to
the duration of uncontrolled
diabetes.
The purpose
of
treatment
is
to
relieve
symptoms, raise the quality
of
life,
prevent complications and to re-
duce death
rates.
Control your
diet;
have
appropriate exercises;
reduce
weight; stop smoking;
treat
hyperten-
sion
and
reduce high blood lipid levels.
Above all, see your
doctor
regularly.
