Diabetes (click for worldwide facilities list): Diabetes is a disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin. Insulin is a hormone that is needed to convert sugar, starches and other food into energy needed for daily life. The cause of diabetes continues to be a mystery, although both genetics and environmental factors such as obesity and lack of exercise appear to play roles. In order to determine whether or not a patient has pre-diabetes or diabetes, health care providers conduct a Fasting Plasma Glucose Test (FPG) or an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT). Either test can be used to diagnose pre-diabetes or diabetes. The American Diabetes Association recommends the FPG because it is easier, faster, and less expensive to perform. The major types of diabetes are: Type 1 diabetes, Type 2 diabetes, Gestational diabetes, and Pre-diabetes. No matter what type of diabetes you have, it affects many parts of your life. In centers that focus on diabetes care, health care professionals often already work as a team. Your primary care doctor can help find the specialist you need and work with you and that specialist to coordinate your care. http://www.diabetes.org/about-diabetes.jsp
