Diabetic and don't have a foot doctor? Quickly three reasons why you need a foot doctor!!

If you are diabetic, you can not avoid the thought in the back of your brain of someone who had a limb amputated due to diabetes.  Everyone has a story of an uncle, aunt or grandparent who suffered with an amputation due to complication of diabetes.  Every 20 seconds someone loses a limb due to diabetes according to Armstrong, et al, Diabetes Care 2013.

Top 3 reasons why you need to see a foot doctor:

1. Peripheral Neuropathy

  • when seeing a foot doctor at least quarterly your sensation will be assessed and evaluated.  The doctor can perform a simple in office test to make sure your protective threshold is still intact
  • More than 90% of people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy are unaware they have it, according to Bongaerts, et al, Diabetes Care, 2013
  • So if you do not know your sensation is not intact, you run a much higher risk of ulceration and/or limb loss
2. Ulceration
  • According to a study in the Journal of American Medicine in 2005: up to 25% of those people with diagnosed with diabetes will develop a foot ulcer. More than half of those have the risk of becoming infected and 20% of the infections will go on to amputations according to Lavery et al Diabetes Care 2006.
  • Seeing your podiatrist quarterly, they will inspect your feet, identify any pressure spots that could predispose you to an ulceration and offload these spots to prevent the calluses from forming that often develop wounds if not routinely debrided in the diabetic patient.
3. Amputation
  • Again, every 20 seconds someone loses a limb due to complications of diabetes
  • Diabetes contributes to approximately 80% of the 120,000 nontraumatic amputations performed yearly in the United states, according to Armstrong et al. Amer Fam Phys 1998
  • Podiatric Medical care in people with a history of diabetic foot ulcer can reduce high level amputation between 35% and 80%, Gibson, et al. Int Wound Journal, 2013
  • Insituting a structed diabetic foot program can yield a 75% reduction in amputation rates and a near four-fold reduction in inpatient mortality Weck, et al. Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2013

  1. MY EX IS FINALLY BACK TO ME

    I was so depressed when my ex left me for another woman. it made me felt like i was not relevant and my heart and love life was seriously destroyed. i could not concentrate in anything i was doing. i went online and searched for help but could not find any genuine spell caster until i went to Ocala Florida to visit my aunt to ease the depression and loneliness. when i got to Florida, i explained to my aunt who then felt pity for me and told me the secret she have not told anyone about the success in her marriage with her man. she then took me to the temple of powerful Dr. Ugo Wonders whom i met and explained my problems to. he promised to help me because of my aunt. i trusted his words and provided him with the materials needed to help me get my ex back and to my greatest surprise, after 48 hours of casting the spell, my Ex cam back on his knees begging for me to forgive him. i was shocked and surprised at the magic. we are happily married now and everything is working fine with us.I promised Dr. Ugo that i will never keep this a secret because he brought back my life and my world and that i will hare my testimony to the general public.
    My advice goes to any one out there who is emotionally depressed or having any similar relationship problem, to contact Dr. Ugo wonders the ultimate spell caster via his direct email generalspelltemple@gmail.com or call his temple line on +1 386-336-9876 he is the best in Florida....

So that was how he came back the next day with lots of love and joy, and he apologized for his mistake, and for the pain he caused me and the kids. Then from that day our Marriage was now stronger than how it used to be , All thanks to Dr Azaka.
