Feeling Unwell and Have Ketones - should I be worried?

Hi. I assume you have increased your insulin dosages to try to bring the BS down. Having high'ish ketones is mainly a big risk if your BS is very high and taking more insulin and keeping the carbs way down should help. It's possible whatever illness is making you feel unwell is also increasing your BS? Obviously see the DN if things don't improve.
 
Totally different question, I've just checked my key tones because I've not been feeling well and my blood sugar levels have been 18. My key tones was 0.8 should I be worried
If it is 18mmol then it is the very high blood sugar. Try low carb. Under 30g a day.
 
Go and see gp I had keytons and they kept me in and monitored me for 4 days with drip for hydration I lost a lot of weight to ! Are u losing weight ?
