Understanding Diabetes

What Is Diabetes?

Diabetes affects how the body regulates and uses glucose, the main source of energy for your cells.

Insulin helps move glucose from the bloodstream into cells for energy or storage. With diabetes, the body may make little or no insulin, or it may not use insulin effectively. This can cause blood sugar levels to remain too high.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition in which the pancreas produces little or no insulin. Type 2 diabetes develops when the body does not use insulin effectively and may gradually produce less insulin over time.

Primary care can help with diabetes testing, treatment planning, medication management, lifestyle support, and regular monitoring to reduce the risk of complications.

Know the Signs

Symptoms That May Suggest Diabetes

Type 1 symptoms can appear quickly, while type 2 diabetes may develop gradually and sometimes causes few noticeable symptoms.

Excessive Thirst

Feeling unusually thirsty can occur when blood sugar remains elevated.

Frequent Urination

High blood sugar can cause the body to remove more glucose through urine.

Fatigue

Low energy or unusual tiredness may occur when the body is not using glucose efficiently.

Increased Hunger

Some people notice persistent hunger even when they are eating normally.

Unexplained Weight Loss

Unexpected weight loss can be a warning sign, particularly with type 1 diabetes.

Blurry Vision

Changes in blood sugar can temporarily affect vision and may require evaluation.

Numbness or Tingling

Long-term elevated blood sugar can affect nerves, including those in the hands and feet.

Higher Type 2 Risk

Family history, excess weight, inactivity, and high cholesterol can increase type 2 diabetes risk.

Concerned About Your Blood Sugar?

Request a diabetes evaluation or follow-up visit to review symptoms, testing, treatment, and next steps.

Personalized Diabetes Management

How We Help Manage Diabetes

Diabetes care works best when treatment, monitoring, lifestyle changes, and follow-up are coordinated around your individual health needs.

1

Blood Sugar Monitoring

Your provider can review glucose readings and A1C results when appropriate to understand trends over time.

2

Medication Management

Treatment may include insulin or other diabetes medications depending on diabetes type, health history, and treatment goals.

3

Nutrition & Activity

Your care plan may include practical guidance on food choices, physical activity, weight management, sleep, and stress.

4

Regular Follow-Up

Ongoing visits help track progress, adjust treatment when needed, and address new symptoms or concerns.

Your Appointment

What to Expect During a Diabetes Visit

Your visit is tailored to whether you are being evaluated for possible diabetes or managing an existing diagnosis.

1
Health & Symptom Review

Your provider reviews symptoms, family history, medications, diet, activity, weight changes, and other risk factors.

2
Testing & Monitoring

Blood sugar testing or A1C testing may be recommended depending on your symptoms, diagnosis, and care plan.

3
Personalized Treatment Plan

Your provider may recommend lifestyle changes, medication, insulin, monitoring, or other treatment based on your needs.

4
Ongoing Follow-Up

Regular appointments help monitor blood sugar and adjust your treatment plan when needed.

Long-Term Health

Why Ongoing Diabetes Management Matters

Consistent diabetes care can help reduce the risk of serious complications and support better day-to-day health.

Persistently high blood sugar can affect the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, nerves, eyes, and other organs. Regular monitoring gives your provider a clearer picture of how well your current plan is working.

Your care plan may also address blood pressure, cholesterol, weight, nutrition, physical activity, medication adherence, and other factors that can influence long-term diabetes outcomes.

If you develop new numbness, vision changes, persistent wounds, frequent infections, or other concerning symptoms, discuss them with your healthcare provider promptly.

When Diabetes Symptoms Need Urgent Medical Care

Seek urgent or emergency care for severe weakness, confusion, fainting, trouble breathing, persistent vomiting, severe dehydration, loss of consciousness, or another potentially life-threatening symptom. This appointment page is not a substitute for emergency care.
