Diabetes is one of the most common chronic medical disorders and it is predicted that its prevalence will increase. It is also an illness in which patient behaviour is very influential in the application and outcome of therapy. A major problem in treating diabetes is that patients often fail to carry out recommended treatment, and high rates of non-adherence to treatment regimens have been noted.
Accordingly, psychological factors are increasingly recognised as being of primary importance in the management of this condition. The author explains how you can take control of diabetes and lead a healthy and fulfilled life.
