The blood vessels and nerves can become damaged over time if your blood sugar level is high or only slightly increased for an extended period of time. This harm may make it simpler for fat and cholesterol to build up in the arteries, which can result in atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis increases the risk of heart attacks and other issues by restricting blood flow to the heart and narrowing the arteries. Diabetes frequently coexists with high blood pressure and abnormally high levels of blood lipids like triglycerides and cholesterol. Heart disease is also more likely as a result of these diseases.

A critical medical disorder called heart failure occurs when the heart is unable to adequately pump blood. It can result in fluid retention in other body parts, such as the legs, which can lead to edema, or fluid accumulation in the lungs, which can make it harder to breathe.
