This is for a summary I have to do for school. I need as much detail as possible. All input will be greatly appreciated!
Well, now you have a pretty good list of the POSSIBLE complications. Now let’s explore the other part of your question….
Preventing complications of type two diabetes is mainly an issue of keeping your blood sugar as close to "normal" as possible. You do that by simply giving your body what it needs and less of what your mind and taste buds want. Simply put, that means nothing but healthy, low carb, natural foods. Combine that with moderate daily exercise, and you have a recipe for good health.
Since adopting this simple premise, I’ve managed to go without medication for nearly a year after six years of the disease. And, no complications whatsoever.
if im 16 and i have diabetes type 1, will i suffer those? because someone who is 69 years old, battled diabetes only 4 yrs then he died..will i survive?
You don’t know how long the 69 year old person had diabetes before he realized it. You don’t know how well he took care of himself. You don’t know what other problems he had. And although many people live longer than that, he wasn’t young either.
If you follow your doctors advice and take insulin as you are instructed to do, eat properly, exercise, watch you weight and see your doctor regularly (and the eye doctor once a year too) there is no reason to think you won’t live many, many more years.
To answer your question — diabetes complications are loss of sight, loss of limbs, heart attack, and kidney failure. Be aware of that, but don’t worry about it. Accidents happen and healthy people die, so just enjoy your life, because none of us come with a guarantee.

Diabetes is the leading cause of preventable new onset blindness in working age adults. You can have diabetic eye disease and not know it as it is painless and often has no symptoms until very advanced stages. Deborah K. Schlossman, M.D., of the Beetham Eye Institute at Joslin Diabetes Center, explains why an annual eye exam and appropriate care can reduce the risk of blindness and increase your chances of preserving sight.
My husband has a moderately severe case of it. He is on Lantus and insulin 2 times a day. He takes this by injection. He is a bit overweight and has high cholesterol levels. He suffers from kidney failure, diabetic neuropathy. His family history is strong for diabetes. His father had it, his paternal grandmother had it, his great grandfather had it. He does not eat right no matter how I try to make healthy food, he would rather have a greasy hamburger and fries any day. He often sneaks off to the local fast food place to indulge. He worries me to death. His father dropped dead from a heart attack 4 years ago. He was only 65. My husband has diabetes a lot worse than his dad did.He does not heal well if he gets a scratch or cut,and it takes him much longer to heal than it takes me. He also gets these awful boils that have to be treated. He is usually very tired most of the time and has no energy. His fasting blood sugars tend to run around 140. His blood sugars have been over 600 at one time.
The biggest risk for baby when mom had GD is baby may be too big causing shoulder dysplasia(may be spelt wrong) at birth, and hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) after birth. the risk for hypertension is more for the mother. You can have seizures, stroke, or coma from BP too high. They may induce early because the only cure for mom is delivery (it’s called preeclampsia) which depending on how far along you are, you may have a premature baby which in itself has multiple risks.
my mother and family flatly refuse to believe that falling sugar levels affect your judgement and amke you irritable which is especially hilarious given that she always complained bitterly about my father’s lack fo sympathy to her health problems.
the worse one are the ones who think they know but are unaware about haow extensive and complicated diabetes is.
is she the one with the diabetes or are you? If it is you and she doesn’t believe you, then have her talk to your doctor. My daughter was diagnosed with type one when she was 10 and I definitely understand what you are talking about. Also, if it is you with the falling levels, you have to start realizing when it is starting and taking measures to help yourself. Sometime you can do things when you are too low (like ignore it) which can hurt you badly.
Good Luck!!
Please file an FDA adverse drug report against your insulin. In your report please state that the lack of c-peptide in your insulin product has caused your complication (retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, vascular dysfunction, hypertension, etc.).
How long would it take for these complications to take place?
Complications of properly controlled diabetes.?? I can’t think of any. Unless you consider a better quality of life, better health, and longer living and keeping all of your toes, and fingers, and possibly using less or no medications, complications. Nope, in my book, there are none.
