| Insulin deficiency, insulin resistance, Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar levels), ketoacidosis(high concentrations of ketone bodies) relate to... | DIABETES MELLUTUS: -type 1=juvenil onset; insulin dependent -type 2=DM, pancreas is tired, resist glucose; glucose remains high & insulin stays low. |
| Hyposecretion of growth hormone | DWARFISM: Secondary decreased pituitary gland function |
| Diabetes during pregnancy | GESTATIONAL DIABETES: Dx: GTT-FBS; drink 75g sugar; multiple draws |
| FBS | Fasting Blood Sugar= 70-110 dl |
| S&S of hypoglycemia; test sugar; blood sugar is less 60m/dL | Low sugar levels; shaking sweating, pale; headache; grumpy, angry; anxious, dizzy, blurred vision, weak; fainting; seizures, coma & death |

| S&S hypothyroidism | Fatigue; sluggish; weight gain; fluid retention; bradycardia; cold-low body temperature; constipation-corrected with thyroid supplement |
| DKA; metabolic nightmare; body turns to using fat for energy; this leads to ketones in the blood; ketoacidosis-coma and death | Diabetic ketoacidosis: DKA-EXTREME HIGH BLOOD SUGAR; hospitalization is common; fluids; IV insulin; fruity breath; dehydration; lethargic; slurred speech; flushed face; sleepy; comma and death |
