[QUOTE="JohnyT2, post: 2139698, member: 512587"] DKA is not only associated with Type 1, even with Type 2 patients its very much possible especially if the sugar has been high for long time and not diagnosed. Dehydration, high blood sugar level, insulin resistance creates ideal environment for DKA and if its followed by symptoms like weight loss, frequent urination, fruity smell in urine, fatigue and constant thirst. It aggravates if exercise or hard work is added to it. Its good start to control the sugar first with insulin and metformin. Further tests will reveal the Diabetes type, but more or less chances of having T2 is high, which can be more easily managed. Eyesight will improve as sugar levels gets normalized. [/QUOTE]
