Diabetes is a disease that occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. It affects about 37 million Americans, including adults and youth. Diabetes can damage the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and heart, and is linked to some types of cancer. Ask your primary care provider if you should talk with other healthcare professionals about your concerns. It takes a team to manage diabetes but remember—you are the most important participant in your diabetes care. .
