What can my doctor check for at appointments if i am a diabetic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several thinks: The blood sugar level and the average for the last few months. Also to be checked is the weight, the eye, foot and vascular involvement. The heart and the lipid profile should also be checked.
