Well this requires treatment. Ideally with insulin as that will have good results, but tablets will also work. The lipids, thyroid abnormalities are secondary to diabetes, but the former will require treatment initially. Vitamins and iron can be topped up. However, the most important is to control diabetes and lipids to prevent heart attacks.
