Diabetes mellitus, or simply, Diabetes, is a disease that damages the body when the blood glucose (sugar) is allowed to remain too high for too many years.
Major Types of DiabetesThere are several major types of diabetes:The different types of diabetes share many features once the diagnosis is made. The drugs are powerful and some may reduce the level of blood glucose to the point that the blood glucose of the patient becomes low, usually less than 65 mg/dl. This state is called hypoglycemia and results in hunger, sweating, a rapid heartbeat, confusion and even coma. It is treated by giving the patient glucose.
ComplicationsIf the blood glucose is allowed to remain high, usually greater than 180 mg/dl over ten years or more, the patient with any form of diabetes may develop one or all of the following complications:Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder that affects how a person's body uses glucose, or blood sugar. The pancreas either cannot produce enough insulin for the body to use or the cells no longer respond to the amount of insulin that the body produces. In either case, the amount of glucose present in the blood is not being properly absorbed by the body.
The symptoms associated with type 1 and type 2 diabetes will vary based on a person's blood sugar. These symptoms can include excessive thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, blurred vision, wounds that are slow to heal, extreme hunger and weight loss.
