Managing your diabetes
If you have diabetes, make sure you are taking steps to stay healthy:
- Get a HbA1c test at least twice a year to check your average blood glucose level for the past two to three months.
- Get an LDL test at least twice a year to check your level of “bad” cholesterol.
- Get diabetic kidney disease testing.
- Get a dilated retinal eye exam.
- Bring this communication form (PDF) to be completed by the doctor who performs your eye exam.
- Get a regular foot exam.
- Eat a healthy diet.
- Exercise regularly.
