Mdm Sarvananthan Sivasakthy, 39
Medication: None. Condition managed by control of diet and exercise
It never occurred to Mdm Sivasakthy that she could develop diabetes. There had been no history of diabetes in the family and with no signs of gestational diabetes during any of her three pregnancies, she didn't appear to be at risk. So it came as a shock when she was diagnosed with the disease at the age of 35.
Today, Mdm Sivasakthy manages her condition well through regular checks with her doctor. She controls of her weight through a combination of diet and regular exercise. In fact she has been so successful at this that she no longer requires diabetes medication. |
