Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your question.
Noted your concern.
If your mother in law is not diabetic before, she should consult diabetologist at earliest.
In that case there is a need for
- Detailed clinical evaluation.
- Investigations like
Complete blood count
Renal function test
Liver function test
HbA1c
Urine examination including urine ketone.
Depending upon clinical examination & test results appropriate management can be planned.
If she is already on treatment for diabetes she need modification in treatment depending upon her clinical examination and prior medical evaluation.
