Let's talk about sugar! All the things about diabetes and diabetic related conditions that arise in emergency medicine frequently that we do not do a great job of explaining or understanding fully. Some things we talk about include:
-Hypoglycemia
-Hyperglycemia
-DKA
-HHS
Why is it important to talk about more? Being one of the most common diseases (Diabetes), we have to make sure that we are up to date on information and refresh regularly. I hope everyone takes something home from this episode and learn something. Remember, sugar is great until it’s not!
