• #1 Hyperglycemia – Wikipedia

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperglycemia

  Hyperglycemia or hyperglycaemia is a condition where unusually high amount of glucose is present in blood. It is defined as blood glucose level exceeding 6.9 mmol/L (125 mg/dL) after fasting for 8 hours or 10 mmol/L (180 mg/dL) 2 hours after eating. […] The degree of hyperglycemia can change over time depending on the metabolic cause, for example, impaired glucose tolerance or fasting glucose, and it can depend on treatment. Temporary hyperglycemia is often benign and asymptomatic. Blood glucose levels can rise well above normal and cause pathological and functional changes for significant periods without producing any permanent effects or symptoms. […] Chronic hyperglycemia at above normal levels can produce a very wide variety of serious complications over a period of years, including kidney damage, neurological damage, cardiovascular damage, damage to the retina or damage to feet and legs. Diabetic neuropathy may be a result of long-term hyperglycemia. Impairment of growth and susceptibility to certain infections can occur as a result of chronic hyperglycemia.

  Hyperglycemia is blood glucose greater than 125 mg/dL while fasting and greater than 180 mg/dL 2 hours postprandial. […] Symptoms of severe hyperglycemia include polyuria, polydipsia, and weight loss. As the patient’s blood glucose increases, neurologic symptoms can develop. The patient may experience lethargy, focal neurologic deficits, or altered mental status. The patient can progress to a comatose state. Patients with diabetic ketoacidosis may present with nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain in addition to the above symptoms. […] When hyperglycemia is left untreated, it can lead to many serious life-threatening complications that include damage to the eye, kidneys, nerves, heart, and peripheral vascular system. Thus, it is vital to manage hyperglycemia effectively and efficiently to prevent complications of the disease and improve patient outcomes.

  If a person has high blood sugar, or hyperglycemia, they may feel unusually thirsty and urinate more than usual. However, high blood sugar levels can cause a range of symptoms. […] Having high blood sugar levels frequently or for prolonged periods can cause several adverse symptoms and increase the risk of severe complications over time. […] According to the American Diabetes Association, symptoms of hyperglycemia include: high blood sugar levels, high levels of sugar in the urine, frequent urination, increased thirst. […] High blood sugar can lead to several other symptoms and complications. They include: Extreme fatigue: When the body doesn’t produce enough insulin, sugar can stay in the blood instead of going to cells where it can be used for energy. This can cause extreme tiredness. Fatigue can also be caused by dehydration, which can result from frequent urination. Blurred vision: According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), high blood sugar can cause swelling in the part of the eye that helps focus. This can lead to temporary blurry vision. Excessive thirst: High blood sugar in the kidneys and urine can also lead to increased thirst, even if someone drinks liquids. Slow healing cuts and sores: High blood sugar can affect circulation, which can delay the healing of cuts, bruises, scrapes, and other wounds. Unexplained weight loss: High blood sugar can cause sudden or unexplained weight loss. This occurs because the body’s cells are not getting the glucose they need, so the body burns muscle and fat for energy instead. Urinating often: High blood sugar goes into the kidneys and urine. This attracts more water, causing frequent urination. Numbness and tingling: High blood sugar can also cause numbness, burning, or tingling in the hands, legs, and feet. This is due to diabetic neuropathy, a complication of diabetes that often occurs after many years of high blood sugar levels.
