Link to symptoms,  e.g. tiredness, hunger.  Glucose excreted in urine ( exceeds renal threshold). Link to polyuria,thirst,dehydration - protein broken down to form more glucose (gluconeogenesis): provides energy to cells.  -Link Fats broken down to FFA and glycerol for glucose production (gluconeogenesis). Link to weight loss.  Link excess ketone bodies formed from fat break down to ketoacidosis. Link to ketone in urine (ketonuria), vomiting,  coma.
