Why is Awareness Important?
Global Burden: It is the third leading cause of death globally.

Late Diagnosis: Symptoms often develop slowly and are frequently mistaken for normal aging or a "smoker's cough," leading to late diagnosis. Early diagnosis is crucial for effective management and slowing the disease's progression.

COPD symptoms often worsen over time. If you experience these, especially if you are over 35 and smoke or have a history of smoking/exposure, you should see a doctor:

1. Shortness of Breath: Especially with physical activity (this can be the most distressing symptom).
2. Persistent Cough: A chronic, chesty cough that may produce a lot of mucus (phlegm).
3. Wheezing: A whistling or squeaky sound when you breathe.
4. Chest Tightness or a feeling of heaviness.
5. Fatigue or extreme tiredness.
6. Frequent Respiratory Infections (like colds or the flu)

Why Awareness is Critical
Raising awareness aims to address the following three vital areas:

1. Early Detection and Prevention
Spotting Symptoms: Awareness helps people recognize the common warning signs of both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes (e.g., increased thirst, frequent urination, unexplained weight loss, blurred vision).

Knowing the Risk: Educating on risk factors for Type 2 Diabetes (age, family history, weight, physical activity level) encourages at-risk individuals to get tested for prediabetes or diabetes.

Lifestyle Change: It promotes the understanding that Type 2 diabetes can often be prevented or delayed through healthy eating and regular physical activity.

2. Reducing Stigma and Providing Support
Awareness campaigns work to reduce the stigma associated with diabetes, making it easier for people to discuss their condition and seek emotional and medical support.

They emphasize that living with diabetes is an intense, constant management effort that requires a supportive community.

3. Preventing Life-Threatening Complications
Once diagnosed, proper awareness and education (called Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support, or DSMES) are crucial for teaching people how to control their blood sugar to prevent severe, long-term complications.

Understanding the early signs of Alzheimer's is a crucial step for timely diagnosis and support. 💙

While aging naturally brings some memory changes, certain patterns should prompt a conversation with a healthcare professional.

Here are 6 common symptoms to be aware of:

Memory Loss: More than just forgetting a name; it's frequently forgetting recently learned info or important events.

Planning Challenges: Struggling with tasks that involve numbers or multi-step processes.

Time/Place Confusion: Losing track of dates, seasons, or getting disoriented in familiar surroundings.

Trouble with Familiar Tasks: Difficulty completing daily routines like driving or managing hobbies.

Word-Finding Difficulties: Struggling to follow conversations or remember common words.

Mood & Personality Shifts: Unexpected changes like increased anxiety, suspicion, or withdrawal.

If you or a loved one are experiencing these symptoms, don't hesitate to reach out to a doctor. Early detection can unlock vital support and planning.
