Cannabis use has been increasing among people with T1D. In this session, we describe a new syndrome, hyperglycemic ketosis due to cannabis hyperemesis syndrome, that mimics diabetic ketoacidosis. Cannabis hyperemesis syndrome also mimics diabetes-related gastroparesis, and it is imperative for clinicians and DCES that work with people with diabetes to understand the effect of cannabis on T1D management.
