do you know sugar diabetes?

Sugar diabetes is a silent killer. The lifestyle and stressful environment is mainly responsible i mean our fast life and fast food. This is the main reason why millions of people in the United States and all over the world are suffering from this deadly disorder. Many people are aware about this disorder and many are not. However, if you concentrate on the symptoms of diabetes experienced by your body, you can find out that even you are a victim of sugar diabetes. Diabetes is a metabolic disorder. Most of the food that we consume is broken up into sugar or glucose. Glucose helps to take up all the normal functions of your body. Now, to take this glucose to all the cells, insulin is needed. And when this insulin is insufficient to carry the glucose to cells, it leads to sugar remaining in the blood.

Some symptoms of sugar diabetes are weight loss, poor vision, increased thirst, shivering etc. It is important to take early action in this problem or else there will be a lot of complications. If you are diagnosed with sugar diabetes you must consult a specialist.

Thanks for your post, jacson. I have something to ask you.Something strange happens to me this past weekend.
I had a hypo of 51 and felt terrible sweating, extreme hunger, shaking, etc. I ate some glucose tablet and then retested, 35 minutes later and I went hypo (54) again with no symptoms.
I never had such hypos, could I started becoming hypo unaware or do you think it was just a fluke that I felt fine?

I've noticed that in the beginning I was able to recognize my hypo but now it slams me so hard that sometimes I'm scared I'll pass out. I tried out diabetic bracelets to get help at my work place or anywhere out as I caught myself wandering around looking for sugar but can't find it and actually it was right there in front of my eyes. I guess we can avoid it by testing more frequently.

It happened to me as well. I think after you eat a lot, your stomach is full and your body stops the "low" signals because of all the food. It only happens occasionally. I wouldn't be that concerned about it.

I was told by my diabetes educator that as diabetes progresses that one becomes less aware of hypos (or can become so).Take good care of your self becomes very essential here.

You feel it due to hormone, namely adrenalin which makes us unaware for that instance.

Hi, if hypo unawareness is concern for you, you can opt for some foods which run your blood sugars a little high for a week which will enable you to be aware of the symptoms next time they occur.

I have had a problem with my hypo but able to identify and rescue it with the help of my husband, he says that he can tell when I am getting low because I talk like my mouth is full of marbles!!!

I was so worried about going low while driving at work that I was letting my BS run from 150 to 200 all day long.
Just this year I got approval from my insurance company to use the CGMS. It has been great! I can actually let my BS run normal during the day without worrying about hypos.
Despite better glucose control, I still don't have many symptoms. But I am glad to have found something that works for me.
