Remember when the medical world identified pre-hypertension to
better monitor your blood pressure? The new buzz: Pre-Diabetes
concerns a similar condition pinpointing people who are at severe
risk for getting diabetes. Because diabetes silently invades your
body, early detection and corrective action are critically
important.
The goal with identifying pre-diabetes is to prevent the onset of
diabetes from ever happening.
How do you know if you need testing for pre-diabetes? Good question.
The truth is- You may not know. It's our human behavior to wait
until our body produces a pain or ache before we visit the doctor's
office. With pre-diabetes, noticeable symptoms like frequent thirst
and urination may not occur until the disease has progressed and is
already causing considerable damage to your body. Most Type 2
diabetics don't have symptoms because the onset of diabetes is so
slow.
