Clarification regarding the actual true
nature of the 7 disparate categories of
High Glucose Conditions in response to
the following positive spin from someone
who has Cellosis (new clarifying name for
type 2 diabetes):

“Living with diabetes doesn’t mean my
life must stop. It means I will fight
to live and encourage those who already
are suffering from this disease. Help ...

... others prevent it. I started my
weight loss journey because I was obese
and it affected my health. I made a
confident choice to start eating well
and lose weight,” she said on Instagram.

Comments:

Prevention only applies to Preventable
Cellosis. The following are unpreven-
table:

o Islit (new clarifying abbreviation
for Insulinitis, the near-total to
total loss of endogenous insulin)

o Latent Autoimmune Islit (new clari-
fying name for latent autoimmune dia-
betes in adults)

o Diminosis (new clarifying name for
maturity onset diabetes of the
young)

o Neonatal Diminosis (new clarifying
name for neonatal diabetes)

o Gestational Cellosis (new clarifying
name for gestational diabetes)

o Unpreventable Cellosis (new clarify-
ing name for the 20 specific types
of Cellosis that are unpreventable)

o Ohiglucons (new clairfying name for
24 specific types of other diabetes
mellitus)

Cellosis is typically a very slow onset
disease (some have stated that it usu-
ally isn't diagnosed for 10 years after
it occurs), so most live quite some time
without knowing they have it. From time
to time, an undiagnosed individual ...

... with Cellosis dies from it not be-
ing diagnosed.

Islit, if undiagnosed, it kills, and
sometimes even a doctor fails to diag-
nose it, resulting in death.

Islit, if insulin dosages are either
insufficient or not made (see recent
article about a 6-year-old boy who
was not treated with insulin due to
parental & one grandmother and one
quack stopping his insulin), keto- ...

... acidosis kills. On the other
hand, insulin guesses (and yes,
guessing is an often unmentioned
part of what dealing with Islit
entails) risk severe hypoglycemia
(loss of cognizance, seizure, ...

... and/or loss of consciousness)
which can (and does, in an esti-
mated 5% to 11% of those with
Islit) cause severe hypo death.

All High Glucose Conditions are
most often life-shorteners (the
primary cause of that, heart
disease), but -if- one is able
to keep their HbA1c levels at
or near-normal (4.1 to 5.6) ...

... without having severe hypo-
glycemia death, a normal or
longer lifespan is possible.

Sequelae list (risk varying
based on the disparate cate-
gory of High Glucose Condi-
tion one has & how long one
has had it & how long one
goes before being diagnosed):

The following, many with any non-
Islit High Glucose Condition don't
have to worry about hypoglycemia
or insulin dosages as many don't
use insulin and there are many
drugs dealing with disparate ...

... High Glucose Conditions that
don't cause hypoglycemia unless
they are combined with a drug or
drugs that do cause hypoglycemia.

Sequelae risks / consequences:

1) insulin injections and/or inhaling
insulin (Afrezza) and/or dosing
insulin via insulin pump 'bolus'
and/or changing insulin pump set-
tings *

2) counting carbs

3) fighting hypoglycemia with carb
ingestion **

4) countering glucose elevations with
correcting insulin dosages *

5) monitoring glucose levels with
bloodpricked glucose tests and/or
continuous glucose monitor and/or
glucose-alert-dog - as the highest
risk occurs while sleeping, some
(myself among them) wake up during ...

... sleep time (every hour and a
half) to check their glucose level
to respond with insulin if the glu-
cose is too high or carbs (apple ...

... juice in my case) if the glucose
is too low or is going down in a
worrisome manner

6) appointments with one's medical
provider

7) insuring one always has enough
carbs on hand to deal with hypo-
glycemia and/or glucose plunges **

8) insuring one always has enough
quick-acting & long-acting insulin
to handle bolus & basal insulin
dosaging *

9) trying to avoid severe hypogly-
cemia which can cause loss of
cognizance, seizure, loss of
consciousness, and in an esti-
mated 5% to 11% of those who
have Islit, death **

10) trying to prevent ketoacidosis
via sufficient insulin dosages,
a shortage of which can cause
coma / death, that occurring
in an unknown percent of those
with Islit *

11) blindness, an unknown percent
of those with Islit go blind,
a slowing down event in which
Islit is an underlying causal-
ity, but going blind can be ...

... caused by any of the non-
Islit High Glucose Conditions

12) kidney failure, an unknown
percent of those with Islit
experience kidney failure in
which Islit is an underlying ...

... causality, but kidney fail-
ure can be caused by any of
the non-Islit High Glucose Con-
ditions

13) amputation, an unknown percent
of those with Islit experience
one or more amputations in which
Islit is an underlying causality,
but amputations can be caused ...

... by any of the non-Islit
High Glucose Conditions

14) heart attack, an unknown per-
cent of those with Islit exper-
ience a heart attack in which
Islit is an underlying causal-
ity but a heart attack can ...

... be caused by any of the
non-Islit High Glucose Con-
ditions

15) stroke, an unknown percent of
those with Islit experience a
stroke in which Islit is an
underlying causality, but ...

... stroke can be caused by
any of the non-Islit High
Glucose Conditions

16) sexual performance issues, an
unknown percent of those with
Islit experience sexual perform-
ance issues associated with ...

... Islit, but those issues
can be caused by any of the
non-Islit High Glucose Condi-
tions

17) accidents, an unknown percent of
those with Islit experience an
accident in which Islit is either
the prime cause or is implicated
as being a contributing cause **

18) Quality of Life - a significant
percentage of those who have Islit
consider having & dealing with it
to adversely impact ...

... one's quality of life, albeit
many try to spin their experi-
ence in a manner that denies
any quality of life adversity;
that can also happen in any of
the non-Islit conditions but ...

... the chances of it are highest
in the most severe High Glucose
Condition, Islit, until/unless
one has sequelae or one's treat-
ment resembles the treatment for
Islit

19) Cure or dramatic advancements
significantly reducing the min-
ute-by-minute burdens of dealing
with Islit constantly, aside ...

... from continuous glucose mon-
itors and (arguably, insulin
pumps) all still reside in

"T o m o r r o w l a n d"

That also applies to those who
have any of the oft-times less
burdensome High Glucose Condi-
tions

* insulin comments true for every-
one who has Islit or has a non-
Islit High Glucose Condition and
uses insulin

** hypoglycemia comments true for
everyone who has Islit or who
has a non-Islit High Glucose
Condition and uses insulin and/
or a non-insulin hypoglycemia-
causing medication

The old confusing way using ancient ideas
and words (pre-scientific / pre-knowledge
of the human body) which all-too-often
involves folks using the confusing diabetes
/ diabetic words without a clarifier:

diabetes / diabetic with no clarifier,
diabetes / diabetic guessing required
(often, those words are used implying
diabetes / diabetic is ONE condition,
in denial of its disparate natures)

On May 17, 2010, I created a detailed proposal
for changing all of the confusing & misleading
diabetes and diabetic names -and- changing the
confusing reactive hypoglycemia name:

Diabetes Bubble / Diabetes Bubble Burst
https://prohuman.net/diabetesbubblediabetesbubbleburst.htm

Promotion of a Cure for Insulinitis
https://prohuman.net/cureinsulinitisassociation.htm

Glucose Anomalies Research regarding Potential
Cures / Improvements in Treatments
https://prohuman.net/glucoseanomaliesresearch.htm

Name changes for old outdated diabetes and
diabetic words are desperately needed to
eliminate the confusion and misleading that
transpires when those words are used without
clarifiers, which often happens.

A brief summary of what the Diabetes Bubble /
Diabetes Bubble Burst article linked to above
pertains to:

dark red = Insulinitis (type 1 diabetes, juven-
ile diabetes, insulin dependent diabetes, rapid
onset near-total to total loss of endogenous
insulin), 11 specific types,
3 specific types disputed

I got Insulitis Insulinitis in March,
1961, age 5; one day, if I can afford
it, I would like to be tested to find
out the exact polygenetic causality of
my condition.

dark pink = Latent Autoimmune Insulinitis (lat-
ent autoimmune diabetes, slow onset Insulinitis),
1 specific type

dark blue = PreCellosis (prediabetes, but only
applies to increased risk of getting Cellosis),
Cellosis (type 2 diabetes, continued but re-
duced insulin production over time, typically
slow onset), potentially preventable & revers-
ible, 21 specific types

light blue = Gestational Cellosis (gestational
diabetes), 1 specific type (transient but can
increase the risk of later getting Cellosis)

dark green = Diminosis (maturity onset diabetes
of the young, diminished but continuing insulin
production caused by a monogenetic defect),
11 specific types

light green = Neonatal Diminosis (neonatal dia-
betes, diminished but continuing insulin produc-
tion caused by a monogenetic defect in the first
6 months after birth), 8 specific types are per-
manent, 4 specific types are transient

purple = Ohiglucons, Other High Glucose Condi-
tions (other diabetes mellitus), 24 specific
types:
- 5 specific types are drug or chemical-
induced,
- 5 specific types result from endocrino-
pathies,
- 7 specific types involve exocrine or
pancreas diseases or surgical treatment,
- 4 specific types result from insulin action
defects,
- 2 specific types result from other genetic
syndromes,
- 1 specific type results from anti-insulin
receptor antibodies

gray = Insipidus (diabetes insipidus), 6 spe-
cific types (4 are non-glucose anomalies,
2 specifc types include high glucose)

bright red = Hypoglycemia Uncaused by Treatments
for High Glucose, Hut (reactive
hypoglycemia, hyperinsulinism),
21 specific types
