l
Signs of
low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) . it happen when there is not enough glucose
or sugar in our blood.
l
It
usually a side effect of diabetes treatment. People with diabetes use oral
medication that increase insulin to help their bodies use the glucose in
their body. If they take too much it can drop the blood sugar level.

l
Hunger
or hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)are primitive signals known to set off the
stress response in a person. When people have anxiety or depression they are
very sensitive when their blood sugar drop so it can become chronic if the
food intake is not consistent.
l
Poor
diet can lead to anxiety symptoms. These are often related to low blood
pressure.
l
Sweating
is a necessary response to rising temperatures. It hep our body to cool when
it hot outside but if it sweating excessively it could be a sign of hyperhidrosis
(symptoms of social anxiety disorder). So it can lead to anxiety.
l
When we
skip a meal, lack of glucose in the blood triggers the release of adrenaline
because the body goes into fight or flight survival mode so this is the
causes of the sweating.
l
A low
blood sugar glucose level (hypoglycemia) and made the fight or flight
response in our body. So the body will produce additional norepinephrine and
adrenaline which it can lead to heavy sweating and anxiety.
l
If they
do not take any action they may have difficulty eating or drinking, seizures,
a loss of consciousness and coma.
l
It can
lead to fatal complications.
l
It can
help doctors to evaluate how well organs such as kidney liver and heart
working. It also can diagnose disease and condition such as cancer, AIDS and
diabetes, this blood test find out wether we have risk factors for heart
disease.

l
Normal
blood sugar level are less than 100 mg/dL after not eating or fasting for at
least 8 hours. And less than 140 mg/dL two hours after eating.
l
eat or
drink 15 grams of fast-acting carbohydrates such as 1/2 cup fruit juice, 3-4
glucose tablets and 1 tablespoon honey (tips* put under tongue so it get
absorbs into bloodstream faster)
1.
Exercise.
-helps control sugar spike by increasing the sensitivity of our cell to the
hormones insulin.
2.
Reduce
sugar intake
3.
Drink
more water.

What do the symptoms indicate to?

What causes the symptoms to happen?
-
What is Atrial Fibrillation?
-
Who is at the risk of the disease?
-
What are the treatments and preventions for this
disease?
|
-
Arryhythmia. A doctor can detect an irregular
heartbeat during a physical exam by taking your pulse or through an
electrocardiogram (ECG).
-
Hypoglycemia. Low blood sugar level in people with
diabetes they are usually associated with a high risk of marked slow heart rates
accompanied by abnormal beats. Low blood sugar can also cause fatigue,
especially in people who do not get enough warning that their blood sugar
levels are dropping. A person can also feel fatigued after treatment of low
blood sugar.
|
-
The causes of arrhythmia are varied and include
diabetes, mental stress, and smoking. Drinking too much alcohol can affect
the electrical impulses in your heart and can increase the chance of
developing atrial fibrillation. Caffeine or nicotine use. Caffeine, nicotine
and other stimulants can cause your heart to beat faster and may contribute
to the development of more serious arrhythmias. Dehydration can cause changes
in yur body’s electrolytes and also lowers blood pressure.
|

-
Atrial fibrillation is the term used to describe
an irregular or abnormal heart rate. Atrial fibrillation has more serious
health implications such as increased risk of having a stroke or a blood clot
(thrombosis).

-
An overweight or obese, have an immediate family
member with type 2 diabetes, are over age 45, are physically inactive, have
ever had gestational diabetes, which is diabetes during pregnancy, have given
birth to a baby weighing more than 9 pounds, have polycystic ovarian
syndrome, have a lot of belly fat.
|
||||
-
Cardioversion is a procedure that can be
undertaken to treat Atrial Fibrillation. It involves giving the heart an
electric shock and is intended to normalize the electrical activity of the
heart.

Complained
about anxiety, sweating and hunger.
|
The man
experiences anxiety, sweating and hunger.
|
-
Why does he experience such actions?
-
Does his regular diet affects the symptoms
mentioned?
|
-
When triggered by the hypothalamus in the brain,
apocrine and eccrine sweat glands secrete sweat. The evaporation of sweat,
composed mostly of water, salt and electrolytes, creates a cooling effect
that helps maintain body temperature.
-
Stress and anxiety cause the body to secrete the
fight or flight hormones that prepare us for action. These hormones cause our
breathing rate to increase, our heart to beat faster, our blood pressure to
rise, and our sweat glands are activated to produce more sweat.
|
-
Not enough carbohydrates.
-
Eating foods with less carbs than usual without
reducing the amount of insulin taken.
-
Timing of insulin based on whether your carbs are
from liquids versus solids can affect the blood sugar level. Liquids are
absorbed much faster than solids.
-
The composition of the meal – how much fat,
protein and fiber are present.

Normal: 4.0 mmol/L – 7.0 mmol/L.
-
High: More than 7.0 mmol/L.
|
-
Extreme sweating, nervousness, shakiness, extreme
hunger and slight nausea, dizziness and headache, blurred vision, a fast
heartbeat and feeling anxious.

-
You can take juice, hard candy, or glucose
tablets. This will usually help your symptoms go away. Check your blood sugar
again in 15 minutes.
-
An injection of glucagon or intravenous glucose if
the symptoms are severe.
-
Essentially, you want fast acting carbohydrates:
simple sugars with little to no fiber. You also want to avoid high – fat
foods. The fat will often stabilize blood sugars after meals can actually
delay how quickly your body absorbs those needed simple carbohydrates. In the
case of low blood sugar, that is the opposite of what you want. The most
commonly recommended treatment for low blood sugar is glucose tablets or
glucose gel.
|

-
Glycolysis, a simple pathway of glucose
metabolism, critically regulates insulin secretion and metabolic functions of
various cells. Depending on cell types, rates of glycolysis are determined at
various steps of glycolysis that are subjected to the control of key
metabolic and regulatory enzyme(s), which include glucokinase,
6-phosphofructo-1-kinase, and
6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2-6-bisphosphatase. Dysregulation of
glycolysis occurs in conditions of insulin deficiency or resisitance, and is
attributable to inappropriate amount and/or activities of metabolic and
regulatory enzymes of glycolysis. Targeting key metabolic and regulatory
enzymes to enhance glycolysis may offer viable approaches for treatment of
diabetes.
-
Glycolysis is important in the cell because
glucose is the main source of fuel for tissues in the body. If the blood
sugar level continues to drop, the brain does not get enough glucose and
stops functioning as it should. Starving the brain of glucose, it may lead to
seizures, coma and death.

-
Kreb cycle is known as citric acid cycle or
tricarboxylic acid. It involves series of reactions of a substrate which is
the oxaloacetate that is modified in every reaction. Acetyl – coA from energy
extracted, energy transported reactants (NADH, FADH2) which
collect the extracted energy. The controlling enzymes which regulate the
steps of the cycle. It is often divided into 8 steps.
