Reciprocal relationships between viral illness and chronic diseases have been established. Such relationships augment one another and increase the potential harm. The coronavirus 2019 pandemic proved that the most vulnerable populations are the ones with underlying chronic diseases, especially diabetes mellitus. As new data are evolving, viral illnesses, like COVID-19, have been speculated to potentially induce diabetes mellitus. Here we report a 20-year-old male with no past medical history who presented with polyuria, polydipsia, and dry mouth. He was found to have significant hyperglycemia. He had COVID-19-like symptoms a few weeks prior to admission and was tested positive for COVID-19, but the symptoms had resolved prior to his presentation. He was managed with intravenous fluids (IVFs), electrolytes replacement, and insulin. He was diagnosed with new-onset diabetes mellitus likely secondary to a recent COVID-19 infection and was discharged home on insulin, oral antidiabetic medications, and outpatient follow-up with primary care clinic and endocrinology clinic.
