Discussion on diabetes and obesity in children.

Meet Aisha 💡
Aisha is a 13-year-old girl who had been losing weight despite eating well. She was constantly hungry, restless, sweating more than usual and couldn’t sleep. Her hands were shaky, and she was having trouble focusing in school. Some thought it was just teen stress or mood swings.

Then one evening, Aisha developed severe palpitations, a racing heart, breathlessness, and high fever. She was rushed to the ER, and doctors diagnosed her with thyroid storm, a rare but life-threatening complication of severe hyperthyroidism.

She was stabilised in the ICU and later diagnosed with Graves’ disease, the most common cause of hyperthyroidism in children and teens.

✨ Graves’ disease can be tricky to spot early, as the signs are often mistaken for anxiety or puberty-related changes. But recognising the symptoms early can make all the difference.

Hyperthyroidism is not as common in children as adults, but it can potentially have life-threatening consequences if left untreated.
