For men with diabetes: do you have any problems with weak erections during sex? *
Would you like to talk to a doctor about this?
For women between 15 and 50 with diabetes: diabetes and obesity cause a large increase in risks to mother and baby during pregnancy. The risk of miscarriage, still-birth, birth-defects and disability, difficult labour and other risks can be reduced by controlling diabetes before pregnancy. Would you like advice about planning a pregnancy? *
Do you drive? *
Please read the following information from the DVLA to make sure that you are driving legally and that your insurance is not invalidated: www.gov.uk/diabetes-driving.
There is a really good telephone-based diabetes education service in multiple languages. We highly recommend it. Please can we refer you to learn more about diabetes? *
Diabetes can be harder to control when you have another illness, like flu. Make sure you stay well hydrated. If you have a glucose meter please check your glucose more often. Continue eating as normally as possible. If you feel really unwell please don’t hesitate to contact us or 111. More information is available at www.patient.info/diabetes-and-illness. *
