It is imperative for patients to follow the proper diabetes treatment prescribed by their doctor. This means taking their diabetes medication even if it is expensive. However, this is just a start. Diabetes patients must also be as diligent as possible when it comes to monitoring their glucose. They must become proficient at taking their injections and knowing when the appropriate times to take them are. Moreover, patients will need to watch their diet, making sure they avoid sugary drinks and foods loaded with carbohydrates. Instead, diabetes patients should be sure to eat foods rich in fiber such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and Lima beans. Patients who have difficulties keeping organized should consider keeping a journal of all of the things they did each day to treat their diabetes, because not following proper diabetes treatment can have serious consequences.
