The two categories of Diabetes Complications - Your Guide on Correct Prevention




Diabetes is associated with two main categories of complication: short term and long term. 

Depending on the time they do settle in diabetics, you can always hope for delayed onset or delayed aggravation. 



Check below if your blood sugar levels are too high to get complications:



Short Term Diabetes Complications


Short term complications are those appearing very quickly due to very or extremely low blood sugar levels. 

If the treatment for diabetes and other measures are taken earlier, you can prevent the complications onset by optimizing you blood sugar level.

In type 1 diabetics, the level of insulin is very low, and blood sugar levels very high; there is high risk for a condition called “Ketoacidosis”.


“Ketoacidosis” is a condition when the levels of ketones in blood are very high.

Ketones are those substances that your body produce from fat cells when it cannot use blood sugar properly during diabetes. Ketones serves as fuel for brain in conditions when they cannot use sugar.

In high amount they can have very bad effect in your body. 

If the levels of blood ketones are very high, you may feel very sick; some other times it can lead to coma, and death as the worst scenario. That's why in type 1 diabetics we do recommend to check urine ketones levels. If found in high levels, you should get hospitalized as soon as possible. 



Type 2 diabetics are more prone to a condition called HHNS ( Hyperglycaemic Hyperosmotic Non Ketonic Syndrome).  Persistent high blood sugar levels might lead to losing too many liquids, especially when blood sugar levels are higher than 300 mg/dl or even higher than 600 mg/dl. These high levels can also lead to the worst situations like coma or even death. 

That's why we do advice our patients to keep monitoring the blood sugar levels. In case, they are persistently higher than 300 mg/dl, should seek immediate medication attention.



Long Term Diabetes Complications


Long term complications appear in a chronic diabetic due to damages caused to your body by uncontrolled blood sugar levels for many years. However, there is still hope in trying to prevent further and more severe damages to your body.  

Generally, blood vessels and nerves are those suffering the most. These blood vessels and nerves serve as nets around all our body. Depending on the body site/organ they damage, there are several sub-categories of long term diabetes complications. 

We do encourage our patients, to try to educate yourself on what's going on with your body, in order to take appropriate measures and prevent the onset of these undesirable long term diabetes complications. 



Diabetes Complications Severity Index (DCSI)

The Diabetes Complications Severity Index (DCSI) is a new tool to measure the risk for mortality and hospitalization in diabetics with already onset complications.

The higher the number of diabetes complications, and the more severe they are, the higher the risk for hospitalization and / or death in diabetics. That's why it is extremely important to take appropriate measures in order to keep blood sugar levels within acceptable range. 


Following is a list of all long term diabetes complications, their severity, and how you can change the scenario for the best.
