Tequin health danger: Hyperglycemia

Hyperglycemia or High Blood Sugar is a condition in which an excessive amount of glucose circulates in the blood plasma. Tequin has recently been shown to cause the development of Hyperglycemia in its users.

If you took Tequin and developed hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), you can find out today if you are eligible to file a Tequin lawsuit by filling out this simple form.

Diabetic Hyperglycemia is one of the classic symptoms of diabetes mellitus, the others being frequent and excessive thirst accompanied by frequent and excessive urination.

But caution: A hyperglycemic condition without other classic symptoms is not dispositive of a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus, but hyperglycemia is also an independent medical condition with other causes.

By comparison to hyperglycemia as an independent non-diabetic condition, Diabetes mellitus, in its organic form, is an apparently auto-immune disease of unknown cause and unknown cure, in which the islets of Langerhans (a subordinate organ within the pancreas) fail to produce sufficient quantities of the hormone insulin or produce no insulin at all

Non-organic diabetes mellitus can be caused by accidental damage to the islets of Langerhans, or to the pancreas itself (the islets being subordinate, they cannot function without the pancreas); or by other diseases affecting the pancreas, such as pancreatic cancer and other causes of pancreatic failure (which, thus, causes the islets to fail); or by surgical removal of the pancreas (thus, of the islets), usually for one of the reasons noted above.

Common Symptoms of Diabetic Hyperglycemia

If you have diabetes mellitus, the presence of these symptoms can indicate that blood sugar levels are too high:

• Polyphagia (frequent hunger, especially pronounced hunger)
• Polydipsia (frequent thirst, especially excessive thirst)
• Polyuria (frequent urination, especially excessive urination)

But caution: Frequent hunger without the other two symptoms (which invariably occur together, absent renal complications, bladder infections, etc.), can also indicate that blood sugar levels are too low. This commonly occurs when people who have type 2 diabetes mellitus take too much oral hypoglycemic medication for the amount of food they eat.

The resulting drop in blood sugar level to below the normal range prompts a hunger response. This hunger is not usually as pronounced as in type 1 diabetes mellitus (especially the juvenile onset form).

Other symptoms of diabetic hyperglycemia may include:

• Blurred vision
• Fatigue
• Weight loss
• Poor wound healing (cuts, scrapes, etc.)
• Dry mouth
• Dry or itchy skin
• Impotence (male)
• Recurrent infections such as vaginal yeast infections, groin rash, or external ear infections (swimmers ear)
