Patient's question:
Last year, my father underwent a thorough examination and was diagnosed with diabetes. In November of this year, he was hospitalized due to a cerebral hemorrhage. After a CT scan, it was discovered that he had not only a cerebral thrombosis but also numbness on the left side of his body. However, the bleeding point was small. My father has slightly high blood pressure and often suffers from stomach issues!Hello, how should diabetic patients with cerebral thrombosis regulate their condition to live a long life?
Doctor's answer:
Diabetic patients who suffer from a cerebral thrombosis should strictly control their blood sugar, blood lipids, and blood pressure. First, strict dietary control and appropriate exercise should be implemented. Additionally, hypoglycemic drugs should be used to try to keep fasting blood glucose levels at 6.0 millimoles per liter and post-meal blood glucose levels below 8.0 millimoles per liter for two hours. This can help prevent the recurrence of cerebral thrombosis, and at the same time, low-dose aspirin should be taken orally.
