Don’t gamble by assuming your doctor knows how to treat your diabetes when in the hospital. Simple procedures like colonoscopies and minor surgeries can go awry if you aren’t proactive enough in ensuring your safety with your medical team. Just because they went to medical school doesn’t mean they know it all. Learn the key questions you should ask your doctor before going under the knife. Also learn what to do when you are feeling under the weather, from coping with sniffles, to dealing with the flu.

We've got tons of other great resources on how to live a long and healthy life with diabetes:
