Avatar n tn You should contact there parents or diabetes nurse
Avatar n tn Hi, I'm a medical student and was just wondering if it was okay to use this forum to ask qusestions for study purposes? For example, with regard to ketone bodies, are they continously produced at low levels by the body due to oversaturation of glycolytic pathways with acetyl CoA, or are they only produced after guconeogensis has run its course and Beta-oxidation has started and thus the acetyl CoA is turned into ketone bodies as they can't be taken up into the glycolytic pathway?
Avatar n tn A medical diagnosis does not automatically qualify a student for a 504. I will be happy to contact our pupil services person in charge of 504s and have them get in touch with you. Typically, we would meet as a team to evaluate the situation, make the determination, then write the 504 together if determined appropriate.

Avatar n tn I tested negative for infection and negative for diabetes. My medical doctor prescribed an antibiotic for 2 weeks but it did not improve. He referred me to a urologist which I have seen. He found no prostate enlargement but feels I may have prostatitis. He has prescribed an antibiotic for 30 days. I have been taking for 10 days and no improvement. I dont have any other symptoms of prostatitis. Is it possible I could have something else?
Avatar n tn Cinnabon, Since our endocrine system is a bit outa whack because of diabetes, our hormonal balances are likely more fragile than folks without diabetes. I can't answer your question directly with a general rule, but I'll share my own experience with you. I was dx'd in my teen years -- I don't remember exactly my age, but I think I was ~15. My periods were irregular when they first started and then I went many months without one.

Avatar f tn Thank you for your help. I just took a diabetes symptom quiz and I do seem to have a lot of the symptoms. The thing is that my blood sugar has always been in the normal range. I took a type 2 diabetes risk quiz and got a score of 0 (very low risk), so I'm guessing I'm more likely to have type 1? But type 1 usually starts before age 20 doesn't it? Unfortunately, getting labs done could take a while...
Avatar n tn I'm a 4th year medical student in Hong Kong. I experienced ther classical symptoms of diabetes 6 months ago and raised the suspicion of DM, then it was confirmed. I have been so upset with the diagnosis, crying all day long for the first few days. I still can't help crying for long when I'm alone at this moment. My life has been so smooth, I had good academic result, got a boyfriend who is working as a doctor, it has been perfect...
Avatar n tn I am a school nurse with a diabetic student who has trace to moderate ketones and sugar in the 300 range. The student has only vomited a couple of times Mom says she has called the MD and they say only give water. The student was here at school yesterday, and she is at home today. What would the treatment be for this case?
Avatar n tn s office or since November is Diabetes Awareness Month, you may be able to find an organization doing diabetes screenings in your area. Fasting blood sugar over 126 mg/dl would be considered diabetes and fasting blood sugar between 100 and 126 mg/dl would be considered pre-diabetes. Drowsiness and lethargy are symptoms of diabetes but you don't mention having the most common symptoms which are frequent urination, extreme hunger and thirst and sudden weight loss.
Avatar n tn Hi, With the current economy being as it is, its hard enough for the time being for my parents to make ends meet with a child who requires so much medical attention as a child with type 1 diabetes. They really need help, info, suggestions, ect on what they can do for medical help with my little brother who is now 17.

Avatar n tn htm It used to be pretty much impossible to get health insurance if you had diabetes, but 47 states now have laws that require insurers to offer some sort of diabetic coverage. If you're unemployed, Medicaid is also a possible source of help, so check there. Good luck.
Avatar n tn I'm a 3rd year medical student. I have tiny clear subcutaneous vesicles all over my forearm and leg. They have clear fluid and can be broken easily by pressing and scratching. They are not itchy nor red nor painful. Totally symptomless. Just multiple vesicles of 1 week duration. No fever, no cough, no rash at any other area. I did not wear anything that covers those area (ruling out allergy due to contact perhaps).
Avatar m tn Do call the counselor with student health. Usually they cover all the programs and since not directly connected to the medical school, those in control of your future will not know about it. Confidentiality is better protected than you think and you need someone with the right training to guide you through all the stress you are going through. You can also get private counselling outside on your own but the coat will be significant.
