Urine Smells Like Finger Nail Polish Remover??? Posted: 01-04-05 01:27am
Can someone please help me. I was
recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 9
months ago. Before I went into the
hospital my urine smelled exactly like
finger nail polish remover and I remember
the doctor saying something about it but I
can't remember what it meant. It's
happening again and I was just wondering
if someone knew what it meant.

it occurs with severly high blood sugar
and leads to acetone forming in your
stomach, which would by why your urine
smelled like nail polish remover...
And though this post is a little late,
anytime it occurs (and it shouldn't occur
if you are properly maintaining your blood
sugar) you need to call an abulance and go
to the hospital...
