WHAT IS DIABETIC COMA?
Diabetic coma is an unfortunate event, it occurs in two different ways. One is due to hypoglycemia, where a low blood sugar level causes fairly sudden loss of consciousness. Secondly, when the insulin dependent diabetic starts to develop high blood sugar level ( hyperglycemia) As the sugar level rises due to lack of insulin, the cells are starved of ‘fuel’. They have burn something to keep alive, and so they start getting through fat instead.
