| | Diabetic coma - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Brief descriptions of the three major conditions are followed by a discussion of the diagnostic process used to distinguish among them, as well as a few other conditions which must be considered. | | | Fortunately, most episodes of diabetic hypoglycemia, DKA, and extreme hyperosmolarity do not reach unconsciousness before a family member or caretaker seeks medical help. | | | Also, the astute physician remembers that other conditions can cause unconsciousness in a person with diabetes: stroke, uremic encephalopathy, alcohol, drug overdose, head injury, or seizure. |

| | UNDERSTAND HYPOGLYCEMIA By PAULA D. |
| | Hypoglycemia can affect emotions, judgment, perception, the ability to make decisions, and physical reaction time, as well as awareness and consciousness. | | | For example, aspirin used as daily therapy to reduce the risk of a heart attack is not considered to increase the risk of hypoglycemia enough to be of much concern at all. | | | If we are unable to treat our hypoglycemia early, it may progress to the point that we cannot treat it ourselves. |
