Please tell me all the tests that diabetic patients need to undergo regularly.

The most important test for diabetic patients is the hemoglobin A1c test.

Check the hemoglobin A1c every three months and keep the level between 6.5% and 7% or below.

The examination that must be done every six months is a dental check-up.

High blood sugar increases substances that cause inflammation in the gums, making periodontal disease more likely to develop.

Brush your teeth carefully and get regular scaling treatments.

Retinal, kidney, and cardiovascular examinations should be done annually. Diabetic retinopathy can lead to blindness, but

Regular check-ups are important because many cases have no symptoms in the early stages.

Get an eye examination immediately after being diagnosed with diabetes, and continue to visit the ophthalmologist every year thereafter.

Since kidney symptoms do not appear until its function drops below half, regular check-ups are essential.

Cardiovascular diseases can be predicted through tests such as electrocardiograms, exercise stress tests, and carotid ultrasound examinations.

In addition, peripheral nerve sensory tests, autonomic nervous system function tests,

It is also good to have a blood flow test once a year.

It would be good to check your foot condition with your own eyes at home every day!

Diabetes itself is a condition that requires management, but

Diabetes is said to require caution regarding complications.

Blood sugar management always seems to be difficult.

Visit the hospital once every three months for medical treatment.

It seems I have to receive it.

저도 직장에서 매년 건강검진 받고 있습니다. 근데 당화혈색소 같은 것들은 나오지 않는 거 같더라고요. 별도로 요청을 해야 하는 건가요? 어쨌거나 당이 있어서 조심해야 한다고 하더라고요.

저도 공복혈당이 110이라 재검 나와서 당화혈색소 검사했더니 5.1이라 ㅏ당뇨약은 필요없다고하시며 그래도 4개월에 한번씩 점검을 하라고는 하더라구요
