I need advice. I'm in the US. It's the weekend. My blood tests finally came back for 756 glucose and 11.7 a1c. I got a meter and the lowest it's been in 48 hours has been 456 but typically 530+.
Do I need an ER or urgent care immediately? I start a new job Monday and cannot leave during this next week. Primary care doc said he won't treat me, that I need to see an endocrinologist. That will take a minimum of three weeks. Should I just go to an urgent care Sunday ? Can they do anything to lower it? Do I just ignore the symptoms (thirst, urination every half hour, extreme fatigue, etc...) until then or is it really a crisis?
Need advice asap.
