          - frequent urination and thirst

FOCUSSED ASSESSMENT:-
           -patients with known type 2 diabetes, find out about the duration of the patient's diabetes.
          -The duration of diabetes is significant because the chronic complications of diabetes are related to the length of time the patient has had the disease.
          -A focused diabetes history should also include the following questions:-

(a) Is the patient's diabetes well controlled.
(b) Does the patient have severe hypoglycemic reactions.
(c) Does the patient have diabetic nephropathy that might alter the use of medication.
(d)Does the patient have macrovascular disease, such as coronary artery disease (CAD).
(e)Does the patient self-monitor his blood glucose levels.

RISK FACTORS:-
(a) Non modifiable-
              -family history
              -race
              -age
              -history of gestational diabetes
(b) modifiable:-

       - 126 mg/dL (7 mmol/L) or higher suggest diabetes.
       - Oral glucose tolerance test. ... A blood sugar level less than 140 mg/dL is normal.
       - 200 mg/dL suggest Diabetes.

SAFETY COMPLICATION:-
- neuropathy
- retinopathy
- nephropathy
- heart disease

INTERDISCIPLINARY CARE:-
         -Primary care practices are the main source of health care for most diabetic patients.
         - fluid and electrolyte balance
