Heelp guys i was sitting playing some games and i didnt forgot my insulin and i suddenly felt my muscles getting too slow and heavy i knew it was a hyperglycemia but never imagines it would be this very very high like 581 mg/dl never happened to me and i dont even know the cause now what should i do i injected a ton of insulin now and drank around 1 liter of water should i keep moving and test later please help
 
You should seek medical attention as a matter of urgency. If I have used the converter properly your reading equates to 32.2 mmol.
Have you tested for ketones?
 
yea i tested but no ketones for now just random sudden glucose rise and i dont feel anything weird with my body like infection or anything im confused
 
Test your blood glucose again. Check your monitor.
 
Did you wash your hands and retest? (It's possible the reading was an error.)

I'm worried about " a ton" of insulin. Did you calculate a correction dose or just guess wildly? You don't want to go hypo as a result of too much insulin.

Do you have anyone with you who can call a doctor or an ambulance if your condition worsens?

Keep testing until medical help arrives or you're confident your blood sugar is going back into normal range (and you're not going hypo).

Is there a chance your insulin has gone off? Failing that, then an infection can send your blood glucose high. Or it's possible you have overused an injection site and the insulin you injected did get absorbed properly.... (look up "lipohypertrophy").

Good luck.
 
yea i rechecked again after around half an hour its 530 mg/dl now


thank you so much your replies are really giving me a mental relief atleast
