The health service could face a "diabetes time bomb" according to an audit of patients in England and Wales.Hogwash.
The report says 800,000 Type 1 and Type 2 patients have elevated blood sugar levels which could lead to kidney failure, limb amputation and stroke.
It warned that many of the patients were young or middle aged and could require "substantial hospital care in a matter of years".
Diabetes UK said the findings highlighted the need for urgent action.
All forms of diabetes result in raised blood sugar levels. If this is not controlled then it can cause serious damage.
The NHS Information Centre report confirmed that the number of cases of diabetes, especially Type 2, is increasing - particularly in deprived communities.
Type 2 diabetes is fat person diabetes.
No time bomb - do not pay and let the fatsos get hoisted by their own petard.
