Diabetes has two major forms diabetes mellitus and diabetes insipidus. Diabetes insipidus is a rare metabolic disorder caused by to low a level of a pituitary hormone or the kidneys not using the hormone correctly. Often symptoms include extreme thirst and going to the bathroom a lot. Diabetes mellitus occurs when the pancreas is not producing insulin correctly. Without insulin the body cannot process glucose "blood sugar" resulting in too much sugar in the blood and not enough sugar in the body's cells. It will increase your risk of the following: kidney disease, blindness, arteriosclerosis, neuropathy, and also may complicate pregnancy. There are two types: Type 1 Juvenile Onset or Insulin Dependent and Type 2 Adult Onset or Non-Insulin Dependent. |
