Proactive Diabetes Screening

[Guest guest]

Debbie,

You wrote, " He also gave me a glucometer to take home to check my blood

sugars about every 2 weeks. "

Hip, hip hooray for your doctor. We have recently discussed the need fro

everyone with Pancreatitis to monitor their blood sugars twice a week, BEFORE

the

become a Diabetic. As I mention, all the time, early recognition and

intervention, can make all the difference in the world in the prognosis and

quality of

life. I am so impressed that your doctor is so proactive.
