Nausea<\/a> is something that people with diabetes frequently complain about. It can be short-lived and mild, or it can be serious and life threatening. Blood sugar that is either too low or too high can cause nausea. Severe nausea can also be a symptom of diabetic ketoacidosis. You need swift medical attention, or you could go into a coma or even die.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nSome of the symptoms of diabetic ketoacidosis include nausea, abdominal pain, fatigue or general weakness, confusion, trouble breathing, excessive thirst, and breath that might smell a little fruity. Another gastrointestinal complication is gastroparesis. Another cause is pancreatitis. Both conditions can be controlled with diet.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nPeople with diabetes have a higher chance of developing gastroparesis and pancreatitis. Artificial sugars and sugar alcohols can also cause nausea. Some people with diabetes turn to sugar substitutes because they can\u2019t consume sugar, but those sugar substitutes and sugar alcohols can cause nausea when taken in excess.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
