I need to find out how to say some medical stuff in Korean.

Or at least write it down and put it in my wallet.

How would I write "I am diabetic. If I am unconscious please call an ambulance".

Any advice would at least be appreciated, if not potentially life saving.

Cheers.

I will have my wife translate this for you give me a couple of hours to get the information back for you!! Getting your visa with being Diabetic was not a problem? I thought that this was a reason for visa denial? How was the school with you being diabetic?

The Korean word for diabetes is dangnyobyeong (당뇨병). So I guess you could say "Dangnyobyeong hwanja imnida. Jaega euishik eul ileulmyeon, 119 bballi jeonhwa butahk hamnida."

당뇨병 환자입니다. 제가 의식을 잃으면 119 빨리 전화 부탁합니다.
