This type of hypoglycemia does not lead to diabetes.
I have an older Yorkie. very sensitive skin..lately extremely bad flea prob. I use dawn dish soap, instant flea killer.
I know bathing Maddie, my Yorkie, frequent is not good. I have no other thoughts about giving her relief from fleas.
her skin has become bright red, past irritated, blotchy? and there's sore type things. looks like weird ant bites & recently noticed a dime size hard white mass, idk what to call it, on her front paw.
I possibly can def be over thinking these issues.
A three pound Yorkie is EXTREMELY small. Look at it this way, the difference between a four pound Yorkie and a three pound Yorkie is the same as the difference between a person who weighs 100 pounds and a person who weighs 75 pounds! When it comes to being able to carry a litter of puppies and deliver them safely, that one pound makes a BIG difference!
I have 2 dogs, a Maltese and a Yorkie. They will both be turning 1 Dec. 16, and we got them both together so they have grown up together and all that. The maltese is a bit more shy and reserved while my yorkie is more out going and yappy. I have always been more attached to the maltese cuz he's more sweet, hes a mommy's boy and the yorkie likes my husband more since they play rough and is a bit aggressive.
Hello. I'm not a medical professional, just the parent of a kid with diabetes. As a fasting blood glucose result, 80 is on the low end of the ok range, but it is in the ok range.
If your daughter will develop diabetes, or just hypoglycemia, there is nothing known that you can do to prevent it. You can keep your family, daughter included, more healthy through exercise and a better diet with more fruits and grains, for example, but that won't stop hypoglycemia in your daughter.
My 2 year olds pull up exploded and my yorkie grabbed a chunk of it and ran. So idk if I should be concerned with her dying or something. Like shes acting fine right now but I still wonder.
Hi there and Happy New Year to all. We have a little 2-year old Yorkie that weighs approximately 4 pounds. She has never had any health issues and has been the perfect dog however as of Saturday she has been honking, sneezing and seems to be congested.
Is there anything I should do or could do? Thank you.
but I noticed your post, and would like to tell you that I had a 15 year old yorkie...she started peeing in the house..and wanted to get out at night more often...also drank more water....I brought her in for a check up..I thought she might have had a urinary infection. The vet did blood work, and discovered it was kidney disease. Please, get your yorkie to the vet, and have them do some blood work. Any dog that is 13 should have blood work done to help assess their liver and kidney functions.
My miniature yorkie has a really bad skin condition we have taken her the vets and the cream they gave has not worked.
My 10 pound yorkie and my 65 pound olde english bulldogge were playing rather roughly. My yorkie ended up getting hurt and had to have surgery to repair the muscles around his abdomen and a puncture in his vein at his right hind leg. He has recovered quite well, with the exception of not wanting to use the right hind leg. On occasion we have caught him somewhat moving it and he can position it when he is in the sitting position.
Our 15 year old Yorkie died in my arms Thanksgiving day she had pancreatitis and a heart murmur was on Vet m Din and Enalipril her food was changed by local vet to Royal Canin low fat witch made her drink a lot of water witch she never did before with old food this food also has sodium could of this change of food brought on a massive heart attack?
so when I finish I got in line to purchase items, I waited in line for about 35 minutes until it was my turn to ring up. I felt myself getting dizzy and lightheaded but I ignored it since I had already waited so long for my turn in line. I figure 5 more minutes and I'll be headed home, just hold on you can make it.. the next thing I know I woke up with about 50 people surrounding me while I laid on the floor. I have no idea what happened and how I got there.
I would assume that it can cause vision changes because when sugar levels raise and fall in your body they do so in all of your cells - including the cells in your eyes. This is why diabetics should have a glocoma test annually to make sure none of the blood vessels in the eyes are being effected. Sorry I don't know more but please post what you find out here as well so I can learn too.
Went for a normal physical with fasting labs. I got a call from my doctor two days later and my glucose was 56. They were concerned about me being possibly hypoglycemic. Been checking it on and off and reading a lot on the subject but no definite answer as to what I need to be watching for in the future. It ranges from being in the 60s to 120s. The highest I've ever saw it go is 122 but that was two hours after eating.
IF this IS hypoglycemia, you can do a lot to help yourself by making some changes in diet. Folks who live with hypoglycemia often avoid all forms of caffiene, which can speed up the body's functions and therefore increase the pancreas' dump of insulin. Also, many hypoglycemic people avoid all simple sugars and many find some relief in staying on a fairly low carb diet so as not to stimulate the over-active pancreas.
A white rice or quinoa would be alright in small amounts and in moderation. (I know people will rail against white rice but whole grain or brown rice contain too much anti-nutrients and can cause leaky gut syndrome) Make sure to eat those starches with protein and fat to help reduce the spikes of glucose. Do not go low fat, your growing baby NEEDS saturated fat in order to build healthy neuro-processors. Just stay away from trans-fats (mostly found in processed foods).
My sis-in-law is hypoglycemic too!! How are you feeling when you have a count in the 70's or 80's??? Do you have any of these symptoms...shaking, sweating, confusion, weakness?? If so, experiment with Orange juice or grape juice or whatever juice you prefer...drink 4 ounces and wait 10-15 minutes and check your count again...depending on which lab you have your blood work done, the normal range is either 70-110 or 80-120...
The cramps could be due to the hypoglycemia, while other possibilities such as electrolyte abnormalities, vascular issues etc may need to be considered as well. In episodes of acute hypoglycemia, finely grained sugar or candies work better than chocolate along with a little water. Since this was a single episode it may be ignored, however if it repeats you may consider a detailed evaluation by a primary care physician or an internist for suggestion for an appropriate management plan.
I have been diagnosed with type II diabetes, and my physician at the time immediately put me on actoplusmet (no discussion of diet and excersise control first). I told him that I previously had gestational diabetes that once on diet alone caused my blood sugar levels to drop so low that the meter read in the 40's and sometimes just LOW. The nutritionsts then changed my diet so that it was double portion sizes and everything read perfectly.
Hi - I'm new here. I have pre-diabetes (about 2 years now) and have autoimmune degenerative neuropathy (CIDP for 26 years) unrelated to diabetes. I am not overweight, and am 32 years of age. My question is: does inflammation in the nervous system cause alterations in glucose metabolism? I'm currently having multiple daily bouts of hypoglycemia - my doctors can't/won't answer my question. I'm taking IVIG, Imuran and Ultram - no steroids or antidiabetics.
