In the long run, not controlling diabetes can damage the vessels that supply blood to important organs, like the heart, kidneys, eyes, and nerves. This means that heart disease and stroke, kidney disease, vision problems, and nerve problems can happen to people with diabetes.Other problems like increased skin complications,osteoporosis and Alzheimer s disease can also occur.
