Diabetes Questions for Your Doctor
  • We hear a lot about “pre–diabetes”, but I had someone tell me there is no such thing, that once you𔃅ve been told your blood sugar levels are too high, you actually have diabetes. Is this true?
  • Is it possible to cure diabetes?
  • Everyone knows that what you eat is important when it comes to either preventing or treating diabetes, but why is exercise such an important part of the picture? How does exercise affect blood sugar?
  • I am a diabetic who needs new prescription eyeglasses. My doctor told me that my blood glucose level should be normal for 2–3 weeks before getting new glasses. What’s the reason for this waiting period?
  • I don’t understand the link between diabetes and heart disease. Can you explain this to me?
