[QUOTE="Alison54321, post: 2153783, member: 472744"] Over 3mml/L would be regarded as being at risk of DKA. Though high blood sugars are the most obvious sign of DKA, if you didn't taken enough insulin, maybe because you were feeling sick, yesterday, that would be the reason you have such high ketones. I assume you've taken insulin now? Are you taking a basal insulin? that should reduce the risk of DKA. I don't really know what you should do, as I've never had ketones so high I had to go to hospital, but I think you should probably talk to someone, just to check your symptoms, and make sure you have taken sufficient insulin. It is a very serious thing, so don't do nothing. [/QUOTE]
