I've read that people with diabetes have circulatory problems that can cause leg injury, due to not noticing wounds that get infected or other complications.
Some website I read says the legs should be checked daily for cuts, blisters, etc, and that socks should be worn at all times.
Do you need to do all that if you have level 1 diabetes or whatever the fuck it's called? (where you aren't taking insulin, just using the strip things to monitor blood glucose I think)
For those of you with diabetes, can I get some input on what self-care things you have to do? (that the doctor told you or whatever)
