Prediabetes
Diabetes is a significant cause of sickness and death in Tai Tokerau. It can cause heart disease, circulation problems, kidney failure, eye problems, and leg amputation. Often, by the time a patient notices the symptoms, serious damage has already been done.
The good news is that it doesn’t have to be that way. If prediabetes is detected early, making lifestyle changes can reverse it and protect patients from developing diabetes.
