Answer 2

As your question is under Diabetes this must surely be the area you require help? Your GP should be able to give you all the information - his surgery may have a registered Nurse who deals with this condition. Keep clear of sweet sugary drinks, chocolates, cakes etc. Contact Diabetes UK, become a subscriber and they send you a copy of their magazine Balance every two months - very informative. Your GP or Nurse will advise on a blood monitor meter - but first you have to be tested to see whether your blood sugar is high, whether you have Type 1 or type 2 and whether you are to be put on insulin or tablet control or just diet control. If this answers your question all well and good, but if you require help on something else, then you will have to ask your question again.

Answer 3

It depends what kinda risk you're talking about? Risk of getting diabetes depends on type of diabetes and there are no hard and fast rules. Type 1 diabetes affects people seemingly randomly, although some patterns do occur (eg. it is more common in colder countries). You are at increased risk of getting type 2 diabetes if you have a family history of it, are of an asian ethnic group (sorry I find it hard to say that unracestly, but I try - don't want to offend anyone!) or if you're over weight and carry most of your weight on your belly; but saying that, I know several skinny type 2s with no family history of diabetes! Tests for diabetes are v quick and simple and are becomeing available in pharmacies as well as of course by seeing your gp - well worth it as early diagnosis is important. Hope that helps xx

If you are worried about the onset of diabetes, please visit the following interactive site.

You will find the following highlighted text.

"Over 20 million people in the US have diabetes, but many cases are preventable. There are important steps you can take to lower your risk.

This interactive tool estimates your risk of diabetes and provides personalized tips for prevention. Anyone can use it, but it’s most accurate for people who have never had any type of blood sugar problem. If you’ve had problems with your blood sugar in the past, be sure to talk to your doctor about your risk of diabetes.

To estimate your risk of diabetes and learn about ways to decrease that risk, take a few minutes to answer some questions about your health, background, and lifestyle. Your Disease Risk can’t tell you if you'll get diabetes or not, but it can tell you where to focus your prevention efforts—because the best way to fight diabetes is to stop it before it starts! "

You will notice on the left margin another highlighted text captioned “9 ways to prevent the disease." You can click there for further information or click on the right of the above text for details under the following captions.
