Welcome to WADE, The Washington Association of Diabetes Educators
Having diabetes puts you at a higher risk for developing other health problems. However, if you understand the risks, you can take steps now to lower your chance of diabetes-related complications. Talk to your diabetes educator and healthcare provider about potential health issues such as kidney damage, nerve damage and vision loss. They can explain why complications happen and how they can be avoided. But don’t rely on your healthcare team to identify areas of concern you need to play an active role in reducing your risk. Make an effort to learn about complications and consistently track your overall health.
