A member asked:

My dad has diabetes type 2 and is fat and has high blood pressure but takes all his medication. i worry. can he still live a full life?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Long life possible: Your father has conditions which poses serious risks to his life but modern medicine has much to offer and he can do a lot to help himself. Losing weight and controlling both diabetes and hypertension are at least in part within his own control.
