That is why care reaches well beyond a glucose reading.<\/p>\n   <p class=\"sp-p\">Type 2 diabetes often begins quietly and is found late, so complications can already be present at diagnosis. Managing blood sugar, blood pressure and blood fats can delay or prevent them, and slow them once they start.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n  <ul class=\"sp-trip\">\n   <li><b>Watch the <span>eyes<\/span><\/b><p>Diabetes raises the risk of vision loss, including from retinopathy, damage at the back of the eye.<\/p><\/li>\n   <li><b>Guard the <span>kidneys<\/span><\/b><p>Protein in the urine is the earliest sign of diabetic kidney disease.<\/p><\/li>\n   <li><b>Protect the <span>feet<\/span><\/b><p>Nerve and blood vessel damage makes foot problems a common source of illness.

A heart evaluation is considered if symptoms or other signs of heart or artery disease appear.<\/p><\/div>\n   <div class=\"sp-faq-item\"><h3>Why does my physician ask about my mood?<\/h3><p>Depression and anxiety are common in people with diabetes, and the daily work of self-care can feel overwhelming.
