Prevention
To prevent problems with your feet:
Stop smoking if you smoke.
Improve control of your blood sugar.
Get a foot exam at least twice a year with your doctor, and learn whether you have nerve damage.
Check and care for your feet every day. This is very important when you already have nerve or blood vessel damage or foot problems.
Treat minor infections, such as athlete's foot, right away.
Use moisturizing lotion on dry skin.
Make sure you wear the right kind of shoes. Ask your doctor what kind is right for you.
Treatment
By testing your blood sugar level, you can learn which foods and activities raise or lower your blood sugar level the most. This helps you adjust your insulin doses to specific meals or activities to prevent blood sugar from becoming too high or too low.

When sugar cannot enter cells, a high level of sugar builds up in the blood. This is called hyperglycemia.
Treatment Medication

Causes
- Pregnancy hormones can block insulin from doing its job. When this happens, glucose levels may increase in a pregnant woman's blood.
Note: High blood sugar (glucose) levels often go back to normal after delivery. Women with gestational diabetes should be watched closely after giving birth and at regular doctor's appointments to screen for signs of diabetes. Many women with gestational diabetes develop diabetes within 5 - 10 years after delivery.
