Patient's question:
My uncle is already 71 years old this year. He has had diabetes for over four years. Every year, he has to receive intravenous drips and stay in the hospital to lower his blood sugar. He has taken a lot of medicine and is practically a walking pharmacy. I really want him to be completely cured. Could you please recommend a better treatment plan for diabetes?Doctor's answer:
71-year-old female with a history of diabetes for over 4 years. If she frequently needs to be hospitalized for intravenous drips to lower blood sugar, it indicates poor blood sugar control in daily life. Generally, once diabetes is diagnosed, it cannot be cured. That is to say, it cannot be fully healed. She needs to take hypoglycemic medications for life and also pay attention to a healthy lifestyle. The best treatment plan for diabetes is lifestyle intervention and standardized medication use.
