Pre-diabetes is the topic of Heart-to-Heart meeting
“Do You Have Pre-Diabetes?” is the topic of discussion slated for the next Heart to Heart for Women support group program from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday, March 16, in the Whitman Education Room 1 at Morris Hospital, 150 W. High Street in Morris.
Pat Cravens, cardiovascular clinical educator at Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers, will present information on pre-diabetes, a condition in which blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed as having Type 2 diabetes.
Cravens will focus specifically on symptoms of pre-diabetes, risk factors, diagnostic tests and what can be done to prevent the condition from developing.
While the support group is intended to provide a forum for women to share their own personal stories, anyone is welcome to attend the monthly programs.
For more information, call 815-942-2932, ext. 7832, or register online at www.morrishospital.org.
