Nursing Diagnosis Help: Diabetes II

Hi, my case study patient has all the signs of someone who has peripheral neurovascular dysfunction. He has type I diabetes. However, nursing diagnosis only states "RISK FOR peripheral neurovascular dysfunction" Can I still put that in my concept map care plan if he already has it since he can't be at risk if he already has it, right? If not, what else could I use - he has ulcerated area on the food, cool extremeities, cyanosis, weak pedal pulse, etc.
I would say the biggie is related to his diabetes. Look into more information about that! I'm not going to give you the answer, but simply point you in the right direction.

He's at risk for worsening neurovascular damage.
