The month of November has been a successful campaign for diabetes. Kidney Health International gave you daily tips on diabetes prevention and management.

We climaxed our activities with a health screening for the community of Kotwi in the Ashanti region where we screened over 400 people for diabetes, hypertension, obesity, kidney disease and kidney infections.

As a person with diabetes, take note of the nature of your urine.

Is it foamy? Please see your doctor for a urine test to ascertain the presence of protein in the urine.

It’s may indicate early kidney disease.

When you have been diagnosed with diabetes without hypertension and your blood pressure starts going up, make sure you check your kidney function as it may be reducing.

Hypertension and passage of frothy urine might be your first clue of kidney disease when you have diabetes.

Check your blood pressure when you have Diabetes!

As you are going around trusting “one-time” cure for your diabetes, you are increasing your risk of complications.

Every second, minute, hour, day, week, month or year that your blood sugar remains uncontrolled, it’s slowly destroying an organ in the body.

Early diagnosis and prompt management is key!

Being diagnosed of diabetes is not a death sentence.

Being afraid to check your blood sugar is rather very dangerous.

Check it now and seek help if it’s high.

A lot of people assume the management of diabetes is all about medicines and injections.

If you are diagnosed early enough and have mild disease, working on your diet and exercising might be all you need.

Another reason for early diagnosis. You may need medicines and injections with poor control.

Diabetes can lead to amputation of your leg.

Prevent diabetes as best as you can or ensure your sugar level is always normal if you have diabetes.
