From Medscape:
'Italian patients with diabetic foot ulceration (DFUs) suffered mightily during the height of the coronavirus pandemic in that country, according to a newly published study.
Amid a mandatory national lockdown, the rates of amputations skyrocketed at a hospital far from the hardest-hit region as many patients developed gangrene'.
If you are suffering from Diabetes type 2 now is the time to work hard at getting your weight down?
If you're suffering from diabetes, now is the time to stop being diabetic. It's hard, because people are being given outrageously bad advice by their care team. But it can be done.
People get fat because they are diabetic, not the other way around. You may respond: what? All those fat people are diabetic? Every single one of them? Srsly? To which I'll respond: yes. They are. They're not diagnosed as diabetic because the criteria for a positive diagnosis is based on an HbA1c test, which doesn't even measure the dynamic dysfunction that defines diabetes. By the time a patient hits the accepted HbA1c threshold for diabetes, he's actually been seriously ill (and eminently treatable) for many years.
