Blood
Monitoring and Glucose Information Site
Welcome to our
website. We are here to provide as much information as we
can about diabetes and how you can monitor your blood sugar
levels and keep yourself healthy.
Firstly lets
take a look at some diabetes information.
Diabetes is
pretty hard to detect and can go undiagnosed for long periods
of time because its symptoms are usually ignored by long term
sufferers.
Potentially you
can often get sick but feel its nothing at all to do with being
diabetic and feel its just a bug or a general feeling of being
unwell.
Typical
Symptoms of type 1 diabetes can be vomiting and nausea and can
come on quite suddenly, the extra stress of diabetes can bring
on ketoacidosis which will increase your vomiting and nausea
and will lead to dehydration and very serious problems with the
blood levels containing potassium. This is SERIOUS and
can lead to coma and death.
Less obvious
symptoms can include an excessive thirst which will also
include frequent trips to the bathroom, a general feeling of
tiredness and fatigue, distinct weight loss, blurred vision and
nausea with a numbness in your hands and feet.
Its essential
that if you suspect you may suffer from diabetes to get in
touch with a doctor as soon as possible or if you know anyone
with these symptoms to get them to the doctor, it could save
there lives.
It is literally
a case of a simple blood test to detect diabetes, better safe
then sorry.
