My challenges with diabetes


The most changes that challenged me in my live when I first found out when I was diabetic - for two weeks I was very sick I had start to feel very light headed, also I want to drink lots of juices I got to the point that I just could not see anymore so thats when I went to the ER and found out I was a diabetic my sugar was 950 I thought that I was not going to make it and I got real scared my heart start hurting real bad they put me in intensive-care. I stayed in ICU for 7 days and in the hospital for 2 weeks. I found out that diabetes is very serious, don't take it lightly ! Diabetes can cause blindness, amputation, kidney failure, nerve damage, heart attack, stroke-and ultimately, death. I found out that diabetes is a complicated disease, and before you can control it , there are certain things you need to know
