Are Rashes Common To Occur In Borderline Diabetic People?

I have been diagnosed as a borderline diabetic. For the past several weeks I have had a rash that appears on my mid-section, arms, neck, etc. I comes about the same time everyday and it produces a terrible itch. My question is could this be related to the diagnosis?

Hi
As you have mentioned that you are borderline diabetic, the blood sugar levels are not very high so may not be related to diabetes however continue the life style management and diet as advised by your physician.
If I were your treating doctor would have advised for the itching -some anti histamine tablets and apply Betnovate cream
if you still continue can contact
Wish you good health
