Case
Presentation: A 39 year-old (type-1) diabetic patient seeks advice from her endocrinologist when she starts having trouble regulating the dosage of her treatments. She presents with gastroparesis (nausea and bloating of the stomach) and urinary retention (inability to initiate urination).
Tests: The cranial nerve portion of a neurological exam reveals a loss of pupillary constriction and failure to abduct the right eye.
Diagnosis: A risk for patients with diabetes is the development of nerve damage, called Diabetic Neuropathy. Though a patient can have diabetes for a long time, damage to the nerves may not be evident until suddenly, symptoms appear. The exact causes of diabetic neuropathy are not known, but about 50% of all diabetics have some form of neuropathy, though not all will be symptomatic.
