It can cause symptoms like excessive thirst, needing to pee a lot and tiredness. It can also increase your risk of getting serious problems with your eyes, heart and nerves.
It?s a lifelong condition that can affect your everyday life. You may need to change your diet, take medicines and have regular check-ups.
