Having high blood sugar levels can be dangerous for diabetics, sometimes reaching these levels can even result in medical emergencies like diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Taking fast-acting insulin is the most efficient way to reduce blood sugar levels. As a precaution to manage diabetes and avoid emergencies, diabetics can take a number of other methods, health measures, and medications. Diabetic patients can develop a treatment plan with a specialist to ensure their condition does not impact their lives despite living with a chronic condition. Columbia Urgent Care works with patients to devise a plan that includes dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and increased activity levels to control blood sugar and keep their lifestyle intact. Among the dietary assistance provided by Columbia Urgent Care is educating patients about preparing balanced meals, carbohydrate counting, and portion size, avoiding sugar-sweetened beverages, and coordinating meals and medications. In addition to helping you implement a manageable exercise schedule, their advisors ensure you keep hydrated, monitor your blood sugar level, and adjust your plan as needed. Diabetic patients at Columbia Urgent Care are provided with guidance on managing their medication, including the proper storage of insulin, cautious approaches to new medications, and when to speak with their physician about any concerns. The goal of Columbia Urgent Care is to help people with diabetes lower and manage their blood sugar, so their condition does not interfere with their daily lives.
