| diabetic ketoacidosis |
High blood sugar values (above 300 mg/dL) with the presence of persistent large amounts of ketones will result in blood becoming "acidotic". In the absence of enough insulin, the body breaks down fat for energy and ketones develop. People with DKA usually complain of nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, rapid breathing, and sometimes a fruity odor on their breath. This is a medical emergency, requiring Emergency Room/Hospital admission.
