What are the different types of diabetes mellitus
I am a 48 year old man and around 2 days ago, my blood reports were sent home and it said that I have diabetes now. I have always taken care of my health since I was a kid. There is no family history whatsoever and this came to me as a shocking news. This was supposed to be a regular health regime and it turned out to open up more on my sugar levels. I would like to know the types of Diabetes Mellitus out there and how I can further control blood sugar levels in my body. Can somebody help me with this?
