Ollerton, DPM Diabetes-Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease which afflicts about 16 million people in the United States, half of whom are unaware they have the disease. It is a metabolic disease, characterized character-ized by elevated glucose (blood sugar), resulting from defects in secretion of the hormone insulin, defects which cause tissue to resist absorption of insulin or both. Chronic elevation of blood sugar (hyperglycemia) is associated associat-ed with long-term damage to the eyes, heart, kidneys, feet, nerves and blood vessels. Symptoms of hyperglycemia may include frequent urination, excessive thirst, extreme hunger, unexplained weight loss, tingling or numbness of the feet or hands, blurred vision, slow-to-heal wounds and susceptibility to certain infections. Those who have any of these symptoms and have not been tested for the disease should see a physician without delay. Individuals with diabetes are prone to many complications, both acute and chronic. About 15 percent of those with diabetes will develop an open wound (ulceration) on a foot during their lifetimes and 20 percent of these ulcerations will lead to amputations. amputa-tions. The annual incidence of nondramatic lower extremity amputations among people with diabetes is about 54,000, according accord-ing to the American Diabetes Association. Among African-Americans, African-Americans, the amputation rate is 1.5 to 2.5 times that of whites and Native Americans have even higher rates, 3 to 4 times that of whites. Because diabetes is a systemic disease, affecting many organs of the body, ideal case management requires a team approach, involving involv-ing the podiatrist as well as the family physician, several medical specialists and a dietitian. A comprehensive approach to prevention of complications much include good glucose control, adherence to diet, an exercise program proper medication and hygiene and regular foot care. Those who follow the medical team's advice have a good chance of preventing or delaying the complications of the disease and living normal lives. Furthermore, with such a regimen as groundwork, ground-work, it is estimated that more than half of the lower extremity amputations among people with diabetes could be prevented. For the person with diabetes who has not yet developed foot complications, there are wanrng signs which should be recogiv id and called to the attention of le family physician and podiaLi.it.
