Diabetes is a disease that affects your body's ability to regulate blood sugar levels. It can cause serious health complications if not properly managed, so you should make sure you understand the basics of managing it. Here are some things you should know: 
1. You need to monitor your blood sugar levels regularly and adjust your diet and exercise routine as needed.
2. You may need to take insulin or other medications to help manage your diabetes.
3. Regular doctor visits are important for monitoring your progress and adjusting treatment plans as needed.
4. You should also be aware of any symptoms associated with low blood sugar, such as fatigue, dizziness, and blurred vision.
