Infobox[edit]

The article has grown an infobox with a lot of ICD-9 codes. As hypoglycemia is not a disease but a symptom, is there any way to present this information? JFW | T@lk 6 July 2005 22:33 (UTC)

Except it is can be a chronic symptom, not just an acute symptom, I know personal history is not very useful, but if you had a patient like me with no detectable underlying issue but whose reading was always between 17 to 22 mg/dL when waking up in the morning and 55-60 mg/dL 2 hours after a full meal, how is that not a disorder? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gloern (talk • contribs) 01:03, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

user:arcadian put the info box there labeled leukemia. I changed it to hypoglycemia and added the icd9 codes covered by the article. I am not sure that it is a particularly informative box as it stands, but a long table of icd9 codes certainly doesn't belong at the top of the page either. Any suggestions? alteripse 6 July 2005 23:46 (UTC)
