Hypertension
 or High Blood Pressure can trigger as well as worsen complications 
related to diabetes. Most people suffering from diabetes tend to develop
 hypertension later in their lives. Diabetes tends to increase one’s 
blood pressure, making him/her even more vulnerable to other heart 
diseases and cardio-vascular disorders. Diabetes often leads to a 
condition known as atherosclerosis, which is the hardening of the 
arteries. A combination of diabetes and hypertension drastically 
increases the risk of suffering from a heart disease. The risks of 
kidney diseases and retinopathy (damage to the tiny blood vessels 
present in the retina) also go up, resulting in blindness. With age, 
chronic hypertension can also result in numerous cognitive disorders 
such as dementia or Alzheimer’s disease (degenerative mental disorder).</div>
