	Glucose Tests: The Test
		The American Diabetes Association recommends either the fasting glucose or the OGTT to diagnose diabetes but says that testing should be done twice, at different times, in order to confirm a diagnosis of diabetes.
		Most pregnant women are screened for gestational diabetes, a temporary form of hyperglycemia, between their 24th and 28th week of pregnancy using a version of the OGTT, a 1-hour glucose challenge.
		Diabetics may be required to self-check their glucose, once or several times a day, to monitor glucose levels and to determine treatment options as prescribed by their doctor.

		Diabetic neuropathy commonly occurs as a distal, symmetric, predominantly sensory polyneuropathy that causes sensory deficits, which begin with and are usually most marked by a stocking-glove distribution.

		About 20 million Americans have diabetes, most of them adults with type 2 diabetes, which impairs the body's ability to properly use the blood sugar-regulating hormone insulin.
		Of the roughly 177,000 Americans under age 20 with diabetes, most have type 1, or juvenile onset diabetes, in which the body produces little or no insulin.
		Francine Kaufman, head of the diabetes center at Children's Hospital in Los Angeles, said about 25 percent of the diabetic children treated there have type 2 diabetes, compared with just 4 percent a decade ago.

	Medinfo: Diabetes
		Diabetes is a condition which results in too much sugar in the blood.
		It is otherwise known as Diabetes Mellitus (diabetes deriving from Greek meaning siphon, and reflecting excessive passing of urine, and mellitus coming from the Latin for honey, reflecting the sweetness that ancient physicians noted in the urine).
		Diabetes can adversely affect the blood vessels, the eyes, the heart, the nervous system, and the kidneys, but this usually appears to follow many years of poor blood sugar control.
