7.Digestive Trouble
Your vagus nerve helps move food through your digestive system. If diabetes damages it, digestion slows down. You can get heartburn, nausea, vomiting, bloating, feel too full after you eat, and lose your appetite. Manage your blood sugar to help prevent the problem. Even more commonly, nerve damage can affect your bowels, making you constipated or causing diarrhea. A healthy diet or fiber supplements can help keep you regular.
8.Strokes
These happen much more often among people with diabetes, and they also tend to happen at a younger age. A stroke happens when one of the vessels that sends blood to your brain gets weak, injured, or blocked. When brain tissue doesn’t get enough blood, it can become permanently damaged within minutes. What can you do to prevent a stroke? Watch your blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure. High numbers can mean higher risk. Exercise, stay at a healthy weight, and most importantly, avoid tobacco smoke.
