So people with diabetes, particularly type 2, tend to have a really, really hard time like managing and resolving infections. These infections tend to actually build up in their lower limbs and obviously because the circulation is so poor in their lower limbs, right, they can end, they're essentially their neuropathic down there. What that can lead to is essentially gangrene building up in the lower limb so that can obviously cause multiple further complications such as if it's really severe sepsis, amputation of your feet etc which is obviously like dramatic life-changing stuff. Also as well people that are diabetic as well have a increased chance of becoming blind so visually impaired because again like the adverse effect of having such elevated high blood sugar levels just flowing your bloodstream i.e. going to your eyes and causing cellular damage there. There's such a whole host of essentially hard complications that diabetes cause which is why it's so important to manage the disease and and take it seriously if you have it. There's no cure, but you definitely need to learn how to manage it.
It's very important to manage because you can end up losing your feet or your legs or it can lead to things like strokes, fatty liver damage. There are so many reasons to keep it under control.
You are correct Renee, absolutely diabetes is something that needs to be tightly controlled and yeah if it's something that you're dealing with essentially, yeah it's essentially a big lifestyle change in terms of managing it.
Yeah that's so true, like if you don't manage it it can get a lot worse. As I said like if you don't manage it things such as like amputation, blindness etc which are things that are kind of avoidable if you you take it really, really seriously.
