World Diabetes Day: Over 1.2 million Australians live with diabetes, and many don't know they have it yet. Key risk factors include being over 40, family history, being overweight, or having high blood pressure. Early detection through simple blood tests can prevent serious complications. Book an appointment with your GP for diabetes screening, especially if you have risk factors. Your GP can arrange blood glucose tests, HbA1c testing, and provide lifestyle advice to prevent or manage diabetes effectively.
