Yes. Much higher. Though I don't know the medical reasons why. I just know what my doctor told me.

If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, then that makes me a burning truck filled with TNT hurtling through a rocket fuel depot.

Adults with diabetes have heart disease death rates about 2 to 4 times higher than adults without diabetes. See this web page for more information.

 

 

 

I recently went to a new doctor and noticed he was located in something called the Professional Building. I felt better right away.
