Symptoms of diabetic cerebral neuropathy?

summary

Diabetic neuropathy, is due to long-term hyperglycemia caused by metabolic disorders, microcirculation disorders, resulting in nerve ischemia, hypoxia and gradually occur, so that its basic cause is long-term poorly controlled hyperglycemia. Thus, it can be avoided. Diabetic neuropathy can involve nerves in all parts of the body, but it is mainly divided into central nervous system (brain, spinal cord) and peripheral nervous system. Due to the different nerves involved and the different severity, there are different clinical manifestations.

Symptoms of diabetic cerebral neuropathy?

Symptoms of autonomic neuropathy: there are various clinical manifestations. For example, when the autonomic nerve dominating the heart is diseased, the normal rhythm of the heart with breathing disappears, and the heart appears relatively fixed at rest, showing pendulum like tachycardia, while the heart rate will not increase during exercise, resulting in insufficient blood supply during exercise, serious panic, shortness of breath, dizziness, etc hypotension. Due to cardiac autonomic neuropathy, the heart is prone to cardiac arrest and sudden death.

In addition, the incidence of painless myocardial infarction in patients with diabetes mellitus is significantly higher than that in non-diabetic patients, so that patients can not get timely diagnosis and treatment and die. If the autonomic nerve * s lesion dominates the bladder, serious urinary retention can occur, and the urine is not enough. Chronic urinary retention is * easily associated with bacterial and fungal infections. Severe retrograde infection can damage the kidneys, causing rapid renal dysfunction and uremia. When the autonomic nervous system dominating the gastrointestinal tract is diseased, the patient may have delayed gastric emptying, gastric paralysis and gastroparesis, which are characterized by fullness of stomach, belching, overnight food taste and dyspepsia.

In addition, the decrease of intestinal peristalsis can cause intractable constipation or diarrhea alternately, or gastrointestinal irritable disorder, which can cause severe diarrhea more than ten times a day, resulting in dehydration, electrolyte balance disorder and malnutrition. When the autonomic nerve innervating the sweat glands of the skin has pathological changes, some patients may have abnormal sweating, some people do not sweat, some people always sweat regardless of the ambient temperature. For example, some patients originally sweat feet, with the extension of the course of disease, they become dry feet.

matters needing attention

Therefore, here to remind diabetic patients, if your sweat feet become dry feet, you should go to the hospital to check whether the occurrence of diabetic neuropathy, in order to get timely treatment. When the autonomic nerve innervating the blood vessels is diseased, some patients may have severe postural hypotension, that is, the blood pressure is normal in the supine position. Once they stand up, the blood pressure will drop suddenly and become hypotension. This is because the blood vessels can not contract in time to maintain normal blood pressure. At this time, the patient will feel dizzy, flustered, in front of the dark, tinnitus, and even fall or delirium and other manifestations of cerebral blood supply deficiency. In men, autonomic neuropathy can also cause impotence and other sexual dysfunction.
