Diabetes Type 1 Information

Diabetes a medical condition in which a person's blood sugar aka glucose level becomes too high. Once a person has diabetes they will usually have it for life - an exception being gestational diabetes.

The root of the problem is found in the pancreas where the hormone insulin is produced. Insulin is responsible for controlling the amount of glucose in the blood.

Type 1 diabetes is where the pancreas doesn't produce any insulin.

Because the symptoms of Diabetes type one can cause 'hypos' where a sufferer can experience confusion, slurred speech and eventually unconsciousness, it is vital that the patient wears a emergency medical ID so that treatment may be given quickly and their loved ones notified.
