Ever since he learnt he had diabetes at the age of 22, Singaporean actor Duan Weiming steadfastly resisted turning to Western medication that would control his condition.
But following an amputation of part of his left leg in early September, the 61-year-old has had a change of heart.
He now injects insulin every morning and watches his diet. He also takes atorvastatin tablets every night to lower his cholesterol, as well as aspirin and paracetamol to relieve the pain from his wound.
Duan, who recently reconciled with his 35-year-old daughter from a previous marriage after more than 10 years of estrangement, told The Straits Times at his home on Tuesday that he takes his health more seriously now as he does not want others to worry about him.
