The first abnormality: Blurred vision
In the final stage of diabetes, diabetes will have a negative impact on the eyes, easily causing many different eye diseases.
The initial symptom is blurred vision due to the uncontrolled increase in blood sugar levels. This condition will become more and more serious if you do not take the initiative to treat it early, and the patient may even become permanently blind.
The second abnormality: Heart failure, myocardial infarction
Heart failure is one of the symptoms of people with late-stage diabetes and this is a very dangerous complication of diabetes.
The reason is that when blood sugar levels increase, the patient will feel uncomfortable in the heart. And as the disease gets worse, the heart will show symptoms such as heart failure or very dangerous blood clots.
According to Dr. Nguyen Xuan Vinh - Department of Interventional Cardiology, University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, people with heart failure will have reduced ability to function, reduced quality of life, severe condition without timely treatment will face a high risk of death due to arrhythmia, leading to sudden death. Abnormality 3: Kidney failure
One of the other symptoms of end-stage diabetes is kidney failure.
According to Dr. CKI. Le Hoang Bao - Department of Endocrinology, University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City: "Diabetes leads to increased blood sugar levels, thereby increasing pressure in the glomeruli and damaging blood vessels in the kidneys.... When the kidney's filtration rate decreases, the kidneys cannot excrete excess metabolites from the body, gradually progressing to end-stage renal failure". image

Abnormality 4: Having cerebrovascular disease
When blood sugar levels are too high, it can cause vascular disease and blockage. And once the blood flow is blocked, it will lead to various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as cerebral hemorrhage, muscular atrophy, atherosclerosis, etc. These diseases suddenly increase, causing loss of treatment opportunities and can easily lead to death.
Abnormal point 5: Proteinuria
This condition is due to excess protein in the urine and is highly likely to warn that the kidney is having problems. When diabetes has progressed to a severe stage, there is a risk of damaging kidney function, thereby affecting the kidney's filtration process, leading to protein flowing into the urine through the kidneys.
Usually there is only a small amount of protein in the urine. However, as the disease gets worse, it will cause kidney damage, causing more and more protein to accumulate, creating the phenomenon of proteinuria. The above are the hidden abnormalities that warn of the risk of developing late-stage diabetes that have been shared by the press. Diabetes is an incurable disease, so when living together, everyone remembers to closely monitor unusual signs to avoid any dangerous complications for themselves.
