Uncomplicating Diabetes: What To Know About Your Kidneys
December 14 at 5:30pm EST
Many people with diabetes live with a fear of developing health complications. Kidney disease is one of the most common but least talked about. The reality is that one in three people with diabetes has chronic kidney disease and faces the possibility of dialysis. But kidney disease is not inevitable, and with early diagnosis, new treatments and approaches can slow its progression and keep your kidneys functioning. This panel will teach you about kidney disease and how to detect it, and give you the tools to work with your healthcare team and take control of your kidney health.
