FAQ's

Diabetes is categorised into two types: type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. However, for pregnant women, there is gestational diabetes that is developed during one’s pregnancy period. Usual early signs and symptoms of diabetes include:

  • Excessive hunger and fatigue
  • Increased thirst
  • Unintentional weight loss
  • Frequent urination
  • Irritability or mood fluctuations
  • Occurrence of infections, including gum, skin, and vaginal infections 
  • Experiencing a delayed wound-healing process
  • Blurred eyesight

Medical professionals from the Department of Diabetes and Endocrinology address Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes by employing several diagnostic tests, such as the A1C Test, fasting blood sugar test, glucose tolerance test, and diabetic eye, ankle, and foot screening, which include laser photocoagulation, diabetic retina screening, monofilament testing, and different imaging technologies like doppler ultrasound and the brachial index (ABI) test. Interventions may include certain medications, insulin injectables, Bariatric Surgeries for weight loss, and diet and exercise. For type 1 diabetes, treatments include Insulin Pumps or Islet Cell Transplants.

Experts at the Department of Diabetes and Endocrinology diagnose thyroid-related disorders based on your symptoms, which include physical examination, blood tests, ultrasound imaging, biopsy, and genetic testing. We also employ several advanced diagnostic methods, such as the Radioactive Iodine Uptake test or the Dotanoc FDA PET-CT Scan.

Cushing’s syndrome is caused when there are high levels of cortisol in your body, leading to high blood sugar levels. The common cause of this disorder could be the continuous intake of glucocorticosteroids that are usually prescribed to address diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), psoriasis, and so on. Interventions are done based on the cause of the disease. If the disorder is due to the long-term consumption of cortisol, specialists will tailor an individualised treatment plan to gradually decrease the dose. However, if the disorder is caused by a tumour, surgical interventions such as pituitary or adrenal gland removal may be necessary.
