Changjiang Daily Wuhan Client August 23rd Diabetes is divided into four types: type 1 diabetes, 2 type diabetes , gestational diabetes , and special types of diabetes. Each type of diabetes has certain medication methods. difference. If the type is not distinguished and the treatment is not targeted, it is very likely to have serious consequences. A young man abused his blood sugar medication and suffered complications. The cause of the disease was discovered only after he recently returned to Han to visit relatives.
htmlXiao Hu, who is nearly 30 years old, works in Changsha. Two years ago, he found that his blood sugar increased during a physical examination. He thought that the blood sugar was high and he just needed to lower the blood sugar, so he bought anti-diabetic medicine and took it orally. After taking the medicine, the blood sugar level turned out to be normal. It has dropped, and every time the blood sugar is measured using and , it is basically at the normal level. In the past year, Xiao Hu gradually developed symptoms such as headaches and nausea. He always felt tired and became thinner and thinner, losing more than 20 kilograms.Xiao Hu, who returned to Wuhan to visit relatives, was introduced by his relatives to the Department of Endocrinology of Wuhan Donghu Hospital. The deputy chief physician Guan Yawen conducted a series of targeted examinations for him and was finally diagnosed with adult late-onset type 1 diabetes. (LADA), although Xiao Hu has been taking hypoglycemic drugs, the drugs he took were for "type 2 diabetes", which caused him to develop diabetic ketosis.

Guan Yawen introduced that diabetic ketosis is an acute complication of diabetes. It is often caused by acute infection, trauma, improper diet, and incorrect and regular use of drugs to induce elevated blood sugar and insulin deficiency, so that the glucose in the blood cannot be fully absorbed and utilized. , which causes the body fat to be decomposed to produce a large amount of ketone body , which accumulates in the body, causing diabetic ketosis. Early symptoms often include dry mouth , fatigue, nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, weight loss, and in severe cases, abdominal pain. The most typical symptom is that we can smell the smell of rotten apples from his breath. If ketone bodies accumulate too much and the pH value in the body is less than 7.35, it can cause diabetic ketoacidosis . Severe diabetic ketoacidosis can be life-threatening.
Guan Yawen reminded that the most terrible thing about diabetes is that it is ignored in the early stage, not diagnosed in time, and not treated in time. Many complications occur and cause discomfort later, so people pay attention to it and seek medical treatment. Regular physical examinations are very meaningful for early screening of diabetes. Early screening for diabetes and early intervention can avoid the progression of diabetes and reduce the occurrence of complications, which is very helpful to everyone's health.
Guan Yawen emphasized that different types of diabetes have different treatment methods and must not be generalized. After a clear diagnosis at a professional medical institution, specialized and individualized treatment should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.
