Hi,

Unsure what to do, I've been feeling unwell for about 3 days, our of breath and very lethargic and sleeping a lot!!

My bg's have been high recently, I think I've pushed it over the edge, I haven't eaten much and have taken insulin over the past 3 days but I've finally dug out my meter which accepts ketones blood testing strips and it's reading 2.4mmol, I feel really terrible...

Should I go to the hospital? Or GP I can't seem to get my bg to a suitable level and the ketones are worrying me that they are showing after 3 days of lots of insulin.

A ridiculous time to ask for help I know, hoping there's another night owl out there..
