For a start - a case from the practice of first aid, one of many. A man of about thirty behaved very poorly, was Buen, aggressive, and red-faced. His face streaming with sweat.
It happened in a major grocery store. Security caught the offending public order, withdrew to one side and sat on the chair for further proceedings, but in a lively conversation buzoter somehow calmed down, rolled his eyes and lost consciousness.
In those days, and it was twelve years ago, the teams have not had the meter, in other words priborchik to measure blood sugar. All hope was on the professionalism and experience of the doctor.
This patient with us luck. After the introduction of glucose into the vein, he came to himself, said he has long been suffering from diabetes and usually does not allow such punctures. But it happened that insulin pricked himself and did not have time for breakfast.
It looks like hypoglycemia - a condition in which drops blood sugar levels. Very often such sufferers picks up the police, sometimes mistaken for alcoholics and left lying in the street.
Therefore, the citizens, if we happen to pass by you lying in a puddle of your own sweat alleged anti-social elements - do not take a sin, call an ambulance. Maybe you'll save lives.

A normal blood sugar levels - one of the basic conditions of human existence as a biological object. And when you reject it in one direction or another body is experiencing serious difficulties.
It is clear that to maintain such an index in the normal running whole internal biochemical laboratory - I will not paint the formula, believe in the word.
But it happens that for various reasons, stable and reliable system fails. Develops a serious metabolic disorder known as diabetes mellitus. The level of glucose in the blood.
Initially, the body tries to simply dilute excess sugar, so one of the first signs that allow to suspect something was wrong - a painful, almost constant thirst. At this point, people simply must attend to his condition and seek help. That is, a directive. Obliged.
Diabetic patients a lot, and it becomes more and more every year. The reasons for this darkness. The fact that there are several types of diabetes.
The first type - insulin, when specialized cells of the pancreas stops producing a hormone called insulin. This problem usually happens at a young age. In the event of this type of diabetes plays the role of genetic predisposition, often - transferred to severe viral infections.
Children's endocrinologists are well aware that any flu epidemic brings the debut of several cases of diabetes in children and adolescents. Mumps, in common parlance - pigs, too, has been increasing the number of insulin-dependent patients.
Dear parents! Pay close attention to their offspring! And if you see that the child becomes weak, loses weight and drinking water in buckets - do not expect that it will pass by itself. Urgent drag the child to the clinic and if necessary, lay in a hospital.
Diabetes - a serious chronic disease. It can not be cured, but to learn to live in the given circumstances and to minimize the effects often are quite capable. And in any case, do not try to treat my child different useful herbs - do not waste time, no one person has done a coma healthier or happier.
In not too long ago when there were disruptions in the supply of insulin, we have seen a lot of very difficult young patients. Twenty-five youth died from developed on the background of almost untreated diabetes, kidney failure. A young woman longed for a child, spat on the admonitions of doctors and still got pregnant. In the end, she died a few months after birth. The child was also born sick and spent quite a bit.
I do not want to scare anyone. But it is very bitter and sad to see people die because of their ignorance. Do not hesitate to seek help in time!
Diabetes Type II diabetes, people usually gorge themselves on their own. Sedentary lifestyle, a passion for fast food, food that is rich in carbohydrate and animal fat, overweight, obesity is not to say - all this logically leads to a situation in which the body is unable to work out the necessary amount of insulin to utilize the effects "sweet life". Suffer from this form of diabetes usually large the fair sex.
Type II diabetes occurs, of course, is easier - at least in these patients diabetic coma, the sugar content is not corrected by daily injections and pills. But precisely because of the slow, seemingly not very heavy flow of people quite often refer to the disease is absolutely reckless, and often have no idea what their life is already present diabetes.
With frightening speed progress on the background of untreated diabetes such interesting things as coronary heart disease, cerebral atherosclerosis, hypertension. And the treatment of these ailments is becoming extremely difficult and, frankly, ineffective exercise, since vascular changes are virtually irreversible.
Of course, I'm oversimplifying things. Diabetology is developing very rapidly, and in terms of approaches to treatment and to study the causes of diabetes.
Prevention of diabetes, which does not tire of talking endocrinologists and therapists, in fact, simple, and even when a reasonably good habits, pleasant. It is called just a healthy lifestyle.
Food culture, the exclusion from the diet of sugar, white bread, cakes and pastries, frequent consumption of fruits and vegetables, minimally processed as possible culinary, sleep and rest, reasonable and feasible physical activities, denial of alcohol abuse - these simple measures are very significantly reduce the risk of of diabetes. All in your hands, dear citizens, - well, at least, a lot.
They say there are countries in the world, in which diabetes is considered an incurable disease is not severe, but just a special circumstance of life. From the category of those circumstances that require, of course, attentive to their relationship, but does not put a cross in any career, nor love, nor even in the classroom in professional sports.
And the routine counting of bread units, control of blood glucose, dosage adjustments of insulin or other glucose-lowering drugs and other necessary procedures do not become diabetic tragedy, which transforms man into an invalid, but simply run automatically, somewhere between the toilet and brushing teeth.
They say that such an approach to their health is much less common severe complications of diabetes - such as gangrene of the lower extremities, liver disease, vascular disease, problems with the retina. And the life expectancy of diabetes does not differ from the average.
They say that in any country can be reasonable, calm and without panic to their health. And to cope with problems as they come on the stage when they are solved without too much loss.
Diabetes - is not a sentence. It's just a condition of the problem, which is called life.
