I have type 1 diabetes. in school i was drinking a lot of water and urinating a lot, my stomach also hurt a little so i checked my blood sugar level and it was 567. in the past weak, my blood sugar has been high a lot, from 200-400 however i never reached 500. I want to know how dangerous this is and if it could lead to a diabetic coma?
Hi, Thanks for your question. After going through your question, I can understand your concern. You should go to ER immediately. There is a need for immediate detailed clinical examination and basic investigation like blood sugar level and urine ketones. Depending upon it further evaluation and treatment can be planned.
