Diabetes Center
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by high glucose (sugar) levels in the blood. Insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas, regulates the amount of glucose in the blood. In patients with diabetes, the body either does not produce enough insulin, or does not adequately respond to the insulin it is producing, which causes blood sugar levels to be higher than normal. This center outlines the different types of diabetes, provides information on how diabetes is diagnosed and treated and lists complications that can occur in association with the disease. Sections include overview, risk factors & preventative measures, symptoms & complications and drug treatment.

Fibromyalgia can develop on its own or along with other musculoskeletal conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis or lupus.
