What is diabetes mellitus?

A long-term condition in which blood sugar stays too high because the body makes too little insulin or cannot use it well. Diet, activity and medicines keep it under control and protect the eyes, kidneys, nerves and heart.

These are general explanations, not medical advice. Your doctor’s advice about your own health comes first.
