Diabetic Coma
What is the difference between diabetic coma and insulin reaction?
Diabetic coma is a result of too much sugar in the blood (hyperglycemia) due to a lack of sufficient insulin production. Patients with severe diabetes take insulin injections to help suppliment their body's inability to produce enough insulin. Insulin Shock is a result of too much insulin being released into the bloodstream, wich metabolizes whatever sugars ARE in the body sometimes resulting in an extremely decreased blood sugar level (hypoglycemia). These patients generally need to be given something sweet like OJ or a candy to help jolt sugar levels in the blood.
Why would a person go into a diabetic coma?
A person may go into a diabetic coma if their blood sugar levels become dangerously high (hyperglycemia) or low (hypoglycemia). This can happen due to factors such as not taking insulin or medication as prescribed, consuming excessive amounts of sugar, or experiencing illness or stress that affects blood sugar levels. A diabetic coma is a serious medical emergency that requires immediate treatment.

How to wein off insulin?
My first question is why? If you are a type 2 diabetic and your pancreas does not produce enough insulin or a type 1 diabetic and it does not produce ANY in order to survive, then why would you want to ween yourself off of something that is vital to your survival???????????? without enough insulin your body cannot process the food you eat correctly the result of such an action of "weening" oneself off of insulin would be an extremely high level of sugar circulating in your bloodstream. You would quickly go into cardiac arrest and die! NOT SAFE A VERY BAD IDEA............If you are having these thoughts then I suggest you seek professional medical help to try and gain a clearer perspective on your situation......
