Question Difference in Ketosis?

Hi everyone!

I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 3 months ago, and have cut my carbs down to less than 20 mg a day. After a 27 pound loss, I stalled and started looking for answers around the web. I came across these warnings of diabetics and ketosis, namely diabetic ketoacidosis, which carries these huge warnings of being in ketosis if you are diabetic. Now I'm confused. From what I've learned it's best for diabetics to watch their carbs, to lose weight, and it seems as if diabetes management and ketosis go hand in hand, yet the warning signs of DK are the same ones for general ketosis. My doctor even applauded this WOE. Yet if you check Mayo Clinic, WebMD, etc, it warns diabetics not to be in ketosis.
