complications lead to difficulties in its management. A good and rational
management could diminish the difficulties. A research has been done with cross
sectional design on April 2003 towards 61 respondents. Research instruments are
questionnaire, fasting and 2nd post-prandial blood sugar concentration. Data
processing and analysing was using SPSS programme software for Windows 9.05
version. The result shows that most of fasting blood sugar concentration has
poor 2hr post-prandial blood sugar concentration, while having sufficient
knowledge about Diabetes Mellitus, dieting, exercising and anti-diabetic drugs.
An approach is needed to obtain what kinds of effort could be carried out to
lower or stabilize blood sugar concentration. Further research should focuses
on other factors contributing in blood sugar concentration control, such as;
attitude, tradition, faith/belief, etc.
