I got pancreatitis after gal bladder removal. The doctor did not make sure that my pancreas was in healthy condition before the surgery. Thus, I got an infection and later on I was diagnosed with type 2.

Now, I have to live with the disease and I will definitely pay premium for any surgery or health care. We only have one body and there is no replacement once something bad happens to our body.

Actually, there are two categories of diabetes complications that you should be aware of. In the first category are included those called short-term complications, those settled in a short period of time due to high blood sugar levels.

Indeed, this kind of complications happens when you cannot control your diabetes, and there is a quick raise in blood sugar levels. Here are included Ketoacidosis, mostly occurs in type 1 diabetes; HHNS (Hyperglycemic Hyperosmotic Non Ketonic Syndrome) in type 2 diabetes.

When Ketoacidosis happens, a type 1 diabetic blood sugar level is very high. Yours cells need energy provided from sugar, especially your brain cells. Since your pancreas cannot produce insulin to provide fuel to your cells, your body produces ketones, energy-provided substances for your brain cells.

But, when your blood sugar level is very high, and at the same time your ketones level is very high, then can occur the symptoms of Ketoacidosis.

While in type 2 diabetes, due to high blood sugar levels, your body looses to much liquids and gets dehydrated. That causes the symptoms of HHNS. Both two are very dangerous because can lead to coma or even death.

The second category is called long-term complications, where are included those damages caused to your body from high blood sugar levels during many years.

Your blood vessels and other tissues can be damages and at the same time become very sensitive to further damages. Since your blood vessels are spread all around your body, your organs begin to suffer.

You can ‘’see” how your heart suffers through and heart attack or hypertension. You can ‘’see” your nerves damages through numbness or loss of your leg. Also your kidneys can become nonfunctional and practically you may need a dialysis to clean your body up. Your eyes are damaged and you may have many vision problems, even blindness.

You can see by yourself how important is to keep your blood sugar levels at normal range. All these diabetes complications can make your life easy not at all. You should care about them.
