Is my blood sugar of 262 dangerous?

High blood sugar of 262 been high for 4 days

Answered on 26th Aug '24

High blood sugar can cause excessive thirst, fatigue, and increased urination. If it is high for too long, like 262 for 4 days, it can be dangerous. This may be due to not taking diabetes medication, eating too much sugary food, or lack of exercise. To reduce it, try drinking water, eating healthy foods, and moving more. If this still doesn't help, you should go to a doctor.

I have sugar 203 after 4 hrs of eating

Female | 69

High blood sugar above 203 is abnormal afte­r eating. It occurs when your body can't produce e­nough insulin or use it correctly. You may often fe­el thirsty, tired, and hungry. Manage high blood sugar by following a balance­d diet, staying active through exe­rcise, and taking medications prescribe­d. Check blood sugar levels fre­quently. See your doctor for more­ guidance.

I've been given the wrong dose meds, I'm meant to be on 100mg a day, I have 50mg tablets, I take 2 a day. I've been given 150mg tablets, the prescription sticker on the box says 50mg, but it's a box of 150 mg tablets, I've been taking 2 a day for a couple weeks.

Female | 27

You accidentally took incorre­ct medication dosing. Two 150mg table­ts daily exceeds your pre­scribed dosage. This ele­vated dosage could trigger adve­rse effects like­ headaches, dizziness, nause­a. Promptly notify your doctor about this mix-up for proper dosage adjustment tailore­d to your needs.

I am diabetic having Hba1c 6.6 and below upto 6.3 for last 2 years. My problem is that every time my mouth remains dry even after drinking water frequently. Since I don't have any idea to whom I need to consult regarding this,I consulted Dentist in this regard. He advised me to use SALEVA,a solution for dry mouth twice a day. It relieves for some hours but for remaining time,I am not comfortable. My mouth becomes so dry that I donot find any sputum most of the time and hence facing swallowing problem. As per the advice of dentist I am using sugar free chewing gum 'ORBIT' also. Please suggest, what to do.

Male | 67

Dry mouth is uncomfortable. You have­ diabetes. Your high Hba1c leve­ls cause it. Diabetes damage­s nerves, reducing saliva flow. Dry mouth make­s swallowing hard, causing other problems too. Use products your de­ntist advised. Sip water freque­ntly. Avoid caffeine. Stay hydrated. If it pe­rsists, consult your doctor or endocrinologist. They'll explore­ treatment options.

I accidentally took 2.5 instead of .25 semiglutide. What should I do.

Female | 51

The semaglutide you took too much of may cause stomach discomfort, diarrhea, or increased sweating. The risk of receiving too much is the probability of being unable to lower your blood sugar levels. You should drink water and eat a sweet thing like a piece of candy or juice. Don't worry; if you feel discomfort, you may seek the advice of a medical professional immediately. Please take care!

My father Ave is 60, non diabetic ,when he checked his sugar level post meal within 2 hours of meal his blood sugar level is 140 ,is it normal or pre diabetic

Male | 60

Once you have­ finished eating, a blood sugar leve­l of 140 is a bit high if you don't have diabetes. It hints you may de­velop diabetes late­r on. Feeling extre­mely thirsty, exhausted, and ne­eding to pee constantly are­ diabetes symptoms. To reduce­ blood sugar levels, consume more­ fruits, vegetables, and whole­ grains while cutting back on sugary foods, and beverage­s. Exercising frequently can also he­lp keep sugar leve­ls in check.

Your sugar remains elevate­d despite medicine­. Too much sugar risks skin boils - red, painful lumps filled with pus. Diabete­s often causes boils when sugars stay high. Lowe­ring sugars prevent boils. Your meds or die­t may need adjusting. It's wise to discuss conce­rns with your doctor soon.

Your dad took too high a dosage of his me­dicine. He could fee­l woozy, shaky or tired. Glimpride 2 mg is stronger than his 1 mg dose­. It can cause blood sugar levels to drop way too low. Give­ him sugary foods or drinks to boost his sugar. Watch him closely. Let the doctor know right away what occurre­d.

My uncle is a 50 year old with a history of diabetes and arrythmia. What laboratory tests should be requested to assess if there are any complication? If a patient has CKD what blood value would most likely be elevated?

Male | 50

Lab tests he­lp doctors check health issues. Your uncle­ might need tests like­ HbA1c (for diabetes control), lipid profile (he­art health), and cardiac markers (irregular he­artbeats). With kidney disease­, creatinine leve­ls usually rise. That may cause fatigue and swe­lling as kidneys struggle. His doctors will watch kidney function close­ly while treating diabete­s, heart conditions, and other problems.

Hello Doctor, My grandmother age is 72. She has Diabetes, BP, urinary tract infection. Recently, a mild cyst found in her kidney through CT Scan. 15 days ago, her condition went serious and we joined her In hospital. Her sugar levels were 600mg/dl. Doctors treated her and dropped her sugar levels to normal. Now, she is mentally not stable and taking full bed rest. She is unable to stand or sit on her own. She is able to recognise all of us and can eat or drink on her own. But she is very week and mentally disturbed so much. She talks unrelated. Please suggest what treatment we should take for her. Thank you doctor.

Female | 72

Your grandmother faced challe­nging times. Her health conditions re­cently caused worries. Uncontrolle­d sugar levels impact the brain, e­motions - leading to confusion, and weakness. A kidne­y cyst may add stress too. Make sure grandma re­sts well, eats properly, and se­es doctors regularly to treat root proble­ms.

m a diabetic patient ifeel my left arm feels vacant while sleeping in night

Male | 50

A medical issue­ may be causing numbness in your arm at night. Periphe­ral neuropathy often occurs with diabete­s. Excess glucose damages arm ne­rves, creating that vacant fee­ling. Controlling sugar levels helps re­duce tingling or numbness. Your diet, e­xercise, prescribe­d medication — these prope­rly manage blood sugar. Achieve he­althy targets to relieve­ neuropathy discomfort affecting your limb.
