Diabetes Feedback: it all has to do with glucose level, which is the main energy source for your body.
hypo- means lower than normal
hyper- means higher
and diabetes is a disease with the major symptom being hyperglycemia due to defective regulation of glucose levels.
you need to find out of it was “hyper” or “hypo” there is a big difference in how to manage them…
Diabetes Feedback: Hypoglycemia is low blood sugar. Your body produces too much insulin. This can sometimes be a precursor to diabetes.
Hyperglycemia is high blood sugar. Your body doesn’t produce enough insulin.
Diabetes incorporates both hypo- and hyperglycemia. The pancreas is shutting down. It produces little or no insulin on its own.
Diabetes Feedback: Hypoglycemia is called low blood sugar, which means that you have low glucose or sugar in your body. At least you have tendency of having low blood sugar. Hyperglycemia is high blood sugar. They are related to diabetes
Diabetes Feedback: Hypoglycemia means low blood sugar, usually below 65 mg/dl. Hyperglycemia means high blood sugar, and that is somewhat relative. Fasting hyperglycemia means a blood sugar of 100 mg/dl or more. Diabetes is a disease characterized by either inadequate production of insulin (Type I) or resistance to insulin (Type II) diabetes. In diabetes there is a tendency toward high blood sugars because the sugar cannot get into the cells in the normal manner, and it is inside the cells where the sugar is used as a source of energy. There is much more to diabetes than that, and is it not simply a disease in which the ability to use sugar is affected.
Diabetes Feedback: Hypoglycemic, is low blood sugar, Hyperglycemic is elevated blood sugar. DiabetesMellitus is the disease. sugars could drop very low, or get very high. Usually, oral insulin or insulin injections are needed to control the sugar levels. Close monitoring by your physician, along with calorie controlled diets, and exercise are 3 ways of keeping your diabetes in control.
Diabetes Feedback: well I have juvenile diabetes myself, Hypoglycemia is when your blood sugers are low all the time and you need to keep candy, orange juice or gluca tabs around in case your sugar drops to low. Hyperglycemia which i have is when your sugar is HIGH all the time and need to be on different types of insulin and sliding scale to control your sugars. It is all a form of diabetes.Diabetes is when the pancreas makes to much or to little to no insulin to regulate the gluclose/sugars your body makes on a everday basis.
Diabetes Feedback: hypoglycemia is low blood sugar
hyperglycemia is high blood sugar
people who suffer from hypo or hyper glycemia are said to be diabetic
