Dr Ferox on Diabetic Ketoacidosis in five minutes
A short ramble about the metabolic catastrophe that is Diabetic Ketoacidosis in veterinary patients. Also the first time I've recorded my voice.

This was very clear and easy to understand, even (like another comment) having done very little bio in school. Thank you for the explanation!
You are welcome! I’m so glad you enjoyed it.
This explained alot. Thank you so much. My dog passed away from this last September and while they explained what and all that, they didn’t go much into detail like you did. I would have asked more but obviously I was more focused on getting my poor boy out of suffering.
Great video! I’d love to see more of these!
Thank you! There will definitely be more coming!
“So that’s another way they like to die” LOL pure veterinary humor right here!
Congratulations you make this explanation so easy that looks like easy to resolve and fix this kind of big issues…
I never did any biology (more of a physics/math person) and this was super easy to understand and highlight exactly how easy it is for living things to die! Also: You mentioned blood transfusions. Does that happen with any degree of frequency with veterinary medicine, and if so, where does all the blood come from?
It depends what sort of caseload you have, but blood more often than not comes from a staff pet.
Just put my baby girl down on April 6th 2021 from this, she never showed signs of being sick, 2 days she was gone, PLZ HAVE BLOOD TESTS DONE WHEN YOU GET THEM VACS… Just broken listening to this…. No vet told me about this iv solution
Your voice is so low to an extend i couldn’t hear any and had to turn caption on
Hope you raise up ur voice
It was the first video I’d ever recorded and have since done much better.
