Diabetes is something I've always had. The term they used is "Metabolic Syndrome X" which I determined to be "adult onset diabetes" later in my medical career.
There is a coding scheme called ICD9CM it is now obsolete in favor of the newer ICD10CM ... but when I was dipped in it it was still 9.
ICD-9-CM is a US medical coding system used to classify diagnoses and procedures in healthcare settings. The International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) is a system developed from the World Health Organiztion which, as we know is a bunch of third world countries in the United Nations trying to assume control of the world in it's entirety.
Good luck with that hayseeds.
Anyway the code for Metabolic Syndrome X is 250.0.
The code for Diabetes Mellitus is 250.0.
I surmised that the same code was the same diagnosis. I am glad that I had the wherewithal to take control of the situation and deal with it prior to things getting worse than they already are.
Today is World Diabetes Day.
It is observed annually on November 14. The day marks the birthday of one Sir Frederick Banting, and serves as the world’s largest diabetes awareness campaign, reaching over a billion people spanning 160+ countries.
The observance was established in 1991 by the International Diabetes Federation. Literature includes the World Health Organization but given their very dubious credentials and that underlying fact that they want to take control of the world, all of it's lands, and all of it's people and their property under their Agenda 2030 & — which keeps getting set back in it's time frame because the rest of the world isn't quite the idiot ninnies the third world WHO might think.
World Diabetes Day is a fundamental effort to improve awareness, diagnosis, care access, and support for people living with or at risk of diabetes from an international perspective.
The United Nations, World Health Organization, and the rest of their third world over rated sycophant phonies should be removed from the United States and their facilities razed to the ground with subsequent salting of the lands they occupied.
