Monterey, CA Diabetes And Cancer A Bad Combination

A new study found that when a diabetic is diagnosed with cancer, their blood glucose monitoring often goes out the window as they worry about the more deadly disease they’ve been diagnosed with.  Researchers found that at the time of cancer diagnosis, there was a 6% drop in diabetes medication use in diabetic cancer patients compared with diabetes without cancer.  Although it can be difficult struggling with multiple diseases at the same time, don’t let it get you down and don’t stop taking your meds.
