It is reported that the girl has been suffering from diabetes, but has not yet been aware, dry mouth, excessive drinking, polyuria, etc. have been more than a year, and before the onset of the disease, it was accompanied by severe fatigue.
Therefore, doctors also emphasize that adolescents need to pay attention to their blood sugar values, take blood sugar as a routine screening content during physical examination, pay attention to exercise in daily life, and control diet.
Diabetic ketoacidosis, what kind of disease is it?
The so-called diabetic ketoacidosis mainly refers to the accumulation of excessive amounts of ketone in the body, which can even be life-threatening if it is not treated in time.
The main causes of predisposition are infection, diet, inappropriate treatment, and various stressors.
Among them, moderate and severe ketoacidosis is often accompanied by dehydration symptoms, such as decreased urine output, dry skin, and sagging eyeballs.
If dehydration exceeds 15% of body weight, it can lead the body into circulatory failure, such as increased heart rate, decreased body temperature, and decreased blood pressure, which can be life-threatening.
Recently, the following 6 abnormalities have appeared, most of which are signs of the arrival of diabetic ketoacidosis
1. Frequent thirst and frequent urination
If you usually drink enough water, but you have an inexplicable feeling of thirst, and it is accompanied by frequent urination, it is likely to be a distress signal for diabetic ketoacidosis.
When such complications occur, insulin is obviously insufficient, glycosterone is elevated, first it is easy to cause problems such as hyperglycemia and electrolyte disorders, which in turn leads to excessive dehydration of the body. First, it makes the patient feel thirsty, and the water will be directly excreted after drinking water.
2. Physical fatigue
When suffering from diabetes, there is plenty of rest time, and there is not much physical labor, but there are symptoms of physical fatigue and limb weakness for no reason, which may also be caused by diabetic ketoacidosis.
The main reason is that after the occurrence of such complications, the patient's internal organs can not function normally, especially the gastrointestinal tract function declines, and the patient often has the manifestation of anorexia, resulting in the lack of nutrients needed in the body.
When not supported by enough nutrients, physical fatigue is a typical symptom.
3. Kusmo breathes
The so-called Kusmoor breathing refers to a decrease in the frequency of breathing, also known as deep breathing.
This result is often caused by an increase in the acidity of the human body and organs caused by diabetic ketoacidosis. When the acidity increases, metabolic disorders can even lead to organ failure, eventually triggering symptoms of dyspnea.
4. Vomiting
Diabetic ketoacidosis can also induce symptoms of nausea and vomiting, especially if it is accompanied by abdominal pain, you should go to the hospital in time.
5. Bad breath
Ketoacidosis is unique in that it includes the exhaled gas with a smell of rotten apples.
The main cause is that the sugar metabolism in the patient's body is impaired, so a large amount of sugar cannot be consumed in time, and finally it will gradually ferment in the body, causing an unpleasant odor.
6. Blood sugar continues to fluctuate
If you take medication or inject insulin as directed by your doctor, and you also strictly control your diet, your blood sugar fluctuates widely, and it is likely that ketoacidosis is a symptom induced by ketoacidosis.
If you find ketosis, or ketoacidosis, you don't have to be nervous, you may wish to drink more water and treat it under the guidance of a doctor.
Of course, for sugar friends still need to monitor blood sugar regularly, fasting or 2 hours after the meal blood glucose > 13.9mmol / L, it may cause the risk of diabetic ketosis, but also need to notify the doctor as soon as possible, take the corresponding blood glucose adjustment program.
