base solely on what you wrote and how you wrote it:
"nephrotic syndrome and gangrene of several toes with the diabetes mellitus" I would code it as follows: 581.9 250.70 785.4 (now, if there's more to the documentation, more specifics, those codes will change) {that's my opinion on the posted matter}

I would code it as:
250.40 581.81 250.70 785.4 If there is further documentation about the type of diabetes then that would obviously change the 5th digit of the diabetes codes. Also, use V58.67 if the diabetes is managed using insulin.

Are you a student?
Carter4002 ... you have a lot of one-line questions ... almost sounds like a test or homework assignment.
