- At each quarterly doctor visit, have a foot check and blood pressure check.
- Twice yearly, have a dental checkup and an A1C check.
- Once annually, have a cholesterol test and a test for kidney function.
- Get all doctor-recommended vaccines, including the annual one for flu.
- Have annual visits with an eye doctor and podiatrist.
