Diabetes can cause many serious health complications [1]. Some may develop soon after diagnosis while others may develop over several years. If diabetes is managed effectively this can prevent complications [2].

Complications can include:

  • heart disease
  • stroke
  • kidney disease
  • blindness
  • lower limb amputation [1].
