    Author: Legaspi R, Narciso P.
    Journal: J Ark Med Soc; 2015 Sep; 112(5):62-3. PubMed ID: 26390536.
    Abstract:
    Euglycemic Diabetic Ketoacidosis is an uncommon occurrence. It is caused by an interaction of existing and worsening acidosis due to nausea and vomiting by a precipitating illness. In this case, a Type I Diabetic patient initially presented with Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) that eventually evolved into Euglycemic Ketoacidosis brought about by continuous nausea and vomiting. The case presented the complexity involved with Type I Diabetes in regards to glucose and energy metabolism and highlights the need for vigilance in monitoring acid/base balance in all diabetic patients who are ill and present with normal blood glucose level.
