What is Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus with Hypoglycemia without Coma?
Type 1 diabetes mellitus with hypoglycemia without coma (also known as type 1 diabetes) is a condition in which the body does not produce enough insulin, resulting in high levels of sugar in the blood. It is the most common form of diabetes and affects children, adolescents, and adults. It is a lifelong condition that requires ongoing management and monitoring.
People with type 1 diabetes must take insulin daily to control their blood sugar levels. Without proper management, individuals may experience episodes of hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, which can lead to a variety of symptoms such as confusion, blurred vision, and fatigue. If left untreated, hypoglycemia can cause coma and even death.
