Type 3c Diabetes[edit | edit source]
Type 3c diabetes, also known as pancreatogenic diabetes, is a form of diabetes that occurs due to damage to the pancreas. This type of diabetes is distinct from Type 1 diabetes and Type 2 diabetes, as it is secondary to pancreatic disease or injury.
Causes[edit | edit source]
Type 3c diabetes is caused by conditions that affect the pancreas, such as chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, cystic fibrosis, and hemochromatosis. These conditions can damage the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas, leading to impaired insulin secretion and diabetes.
Symptoms[edit | edit source]
The symptoms of type 3c diabetes are similar to those of other forms of diabetes and may include:
- Increased thirst
- Frequent urination
- Unexplained weight loss
- Fatigue
- Blurred vision
In addition to these symptoms, individuals with type 3c diabetes may also experience symptoms related to the underlying pancreatic condition, such as abdominal pain or digestive issues.
Diagnosis[edit | edit source]
Diagnosing type 3c diabetes involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, and laboratory tests. It is important to identify the underlying pancreatic condition to distinguish type 3c diabetes from other types. Tests may include:
Treatment[edit | edit source]
The treatment of type 3c diabetes focuses on managing blood glucose levels and addressing the underlying pancreatic condition. Treatment options may include:
- Insulin therapy
- Oral hypoglycemic agents
- Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy
- Dietary modifications
