More Australians are being hospitalised each year for diabetes complications that could potentially be avoided by earlier diagnosis and better management

This National Diabetes Week (July 14-20), Diabetes Queensland is raising awareness of the signs and symptoms of diabetes to increase earlier detection and promote action.
