With diabetes, knowledge is  power.
It is very important that you know about your diabetes and always be aware of your individual disease management goals.  Everyone with diabetes should keep records of their latest blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol and Hemoglobin A1C values.
Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) indicates how much sugar is attached to the red blood cells.  The HbA1C is the best measure of sugar control over the previous three months.
