 note = {Corticosteroids are commonly used in palliative care to relieve symptoms but have been associated with adverse effects such as hyperglycemia. Here, we report a patient with end-stage cancer who developed a hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state during administration of corticosteroids. Insulin therapy and fluid replacement ameliorated his symptoms. The course of this patient suggests that a hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state should be considered as a differential diagnosis when a patient with a history of diabetes mellitus showed lethargy during a course of corticosteroids.},
