52 year old female patient with high blood sugars and vomitings

 This is an online E Logbook to discuss our patient's de-identified health data shared after taking his/her guardian's signed informed consent. Here, we discuss our individual patient's problems through a series of inputs from an available global online community of experts to solve those patients' clinical problems with collective current best evidence-based inputs. This e-log book also reflects my patient-centered online learning portfolio and your valuable inputs in the comment box are welcome.
