About Diabetes

Diabetes is a disorder of carbohydrate metabolism due to deficiency of internal secretion of the pancreas, insulin, and is associated with rise of sugar content of the blood and appearance of sugar in the urine. Earlier it was considered as a breakdown of body's insulin-glucose economy. Lately, much study has been done and the role or intervention by medication at appropriate level and stage is being appreciated.

Depending largely upon the severity and rapidity of the metabolic decompensation, hyperglycaemic patients may present in four ways, irrespective of the possible precipitating factors:

1(a) Acute Onset: The patient suffers intense polyuria, polydypsia, rapidly loses weight, becomes ketoacidotic. (b) Less frequent symptoms include irritability, vomiting, abdominal pain, muscle cramps and peripheral tingling. This onset is usual (but not universal) among children and adolescent diabetics, but may occur among the elderly. Biocombination 7 is helpful in (b) and can be given along with conventional medication.

2(a) Gradual Onset: There is less intense thirst and polyuria, although nocturia may be noted. The obese may lose weight over a period of months, or may have gained weight lately.

(b) Pruritus vulvae or crops of boils may occur; lassitude is common, and middle-aged males may complain of loss of libido, and impotence. This onset is usual in middle life, but may be observed among younger and older patients.

3. Symptoms of complications: Many older people present symptoms of complications of diabetes in the eye (cataract, retinitis), peripheral nerves (neuritis), kidneys (nephrotic syndrome), blood vessels (gangrene, intermittent claudication, and coronary artery disease).
