SENIORNAVIGATOR E-QUICKTIP: November 16, 2007
November is American Diabetes Month

Did you know that more than 18 million Americans have diabetes and one out of three people who have diabetes are unaware they have it? This serious disease often goes undiagnosed in seniors because many of the symptoms seem harmless and are mistaken for “old age” problems.  Visit the following link for symptoms, treatment options, and everyday activities to help control the disease.

The American Diabetes Association's "Information and Action Line" is an information and referral network for diabetics and their caregivers. Trained operators can provide information regarding diabetes management and refer callers to local education classes, counseling and support groups, advocacy services, and more.  To learn more about the “Information and Action Line,” click on the link below.
