Diabetes significantly raises risk of heart disease, often without warning

Diabetes significantly raises risk of heart disease, often without warning

People with diabetes may not experience typical chest pain because nerve damage can mute warning signs, making early detection difficult. Doctors advise annual or biennial heart check-ups for diabetic patients to catch issues before symptoms appear.
