Diabetes Complications

Type 1 Diabets:

patients of type 1 diabetes depend on insulin for survival so without insulin ,the blood sugar level will be elevated then increase in urine glucose but inturn of the excessive loss of fluid and electrolytes in the urine.
Moreover, the breaking down of fat cells and releasing of ketones into blood is also resulted from the lack of insulin, called; diabetic ketoacidosis. The symptoms of diabetic ketoacidosis are ; nausea, vomitting and abdominal pain, the patients of type 1 diabetes need immediately medical treatment so they can have rapid recovery otherwise, they can go into chock, coma and even death.

Type 2 Diabetes:

Short-Term Complications: The imbalanced blood sugar levels due to
- the sever high blood sugar level because of lack of insulin and the symptoms are like the diabetes type 1 (described above).
-abnormal low blood sugar levels are resulted from too much insulin or other glucose-lowering medications, the patients can feel the nervous system symptoms of weakness, dizzyness, confusion and tremors and without proper treatment patients can be lead to coma and brain death.
Long-Term Complications: diabetes causes the diseases of small blood vessels which can damage eyes, kidneys, nerves and hearts.
1. Eye Damage -According to the records, there are about 24,000 patients with at least 5 years diabetes become blind as the eye complications of diabetes (diabetic retinopathy) due to the diseases in blood vessels develop and cause damage of their eyes each year. Diabetes retinopathy can be developed in 50% 0f patients with after 10 years long and about 80% of patients are able to be caused the diabetes retinopathy after 15 years long of diseases.
2. Kidney Damage -The patients with after 10 years-long diabetes are chanced to have the failure of kidney’s functions then they can develop another complication of diabetes which is called diabetic nephropathy. In each year, there are around 28,000 patients having diabetes nephropathy and they need the intensive treatment of their high blood pressure and high blood sugar control for slowing the disease.
3. Nerve Damage

-Disease in blood vessels cause the diabetes complication of nerve damage as we called diabetic neuropathy. The patients are abnormal perceptions of body parts as the nerves have been destroyed so they are including with the symptoms of aching feet, burning, numbness an d lowering extremities. Avoid skin injury is the minor caution for a patients with diabetes as it is easily have serious infections. The diabetes neuropathy damaged the intestines’ nerves causes the nausea, diarrhea and weight loss. In addition, the nerves damage of patients with diabetes can link to the important penile erection’s effect, their sex aroused feeling and finally the penile erection dysfunction. Every year, more than 56,000 patients with diabetes having leg amputation due to the 60% - 70% of diabetes patients are almost certainly risked to be affected by complication of nerves damages.
4. Heart Disease -Heart disease in patients with diabetes are double to fourth times of their affected risks which is around 75% of records of diabetes patients’ related deaths each year. Diabetes patients with heart diseases usually caused to the lack of blood supply are suffering with pain in the lower extremities, strokes, the hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis) of the larger blood vessels, coronary heart disease (angina or heart attack).
In western countries, the researches estimate that 5% rate of mortality reductions are able to occur by the 0.1% of the blood sugar reduction.

Blood Sugar Intensive Control

For a patient with diabetes who wants to become healthier and live a longer life, it is vital to pay attention on the blood sugar control seriously. This can result to decrease 76% of diabetic eye diseases, 54% of kidney diseases and 60% of nerve diseases by the aggressive successfully blood sugar control at achieving fasting glucose levels between 70-120 mg/dl; glucose levels of less than 180 mg/dl after meals; and a near normal hemoglobin A1C levels .
